Thy Will Be Done

The big prayer in the Catholic Church is the Our Father. We used to all hold hands and say it each time. This is a beautiful prayer taken from scriptures. Most Christians know it in one variance or another.

Look at the highlighted words:

Luke 11:2 "And he said to them, When ye pray, say, Our Father who art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done, as in heaven, so on earth."

Thy will be done. Not man's will be done. Thy will covers the earth now and forever, so how can people think they are in charge of their own salvation. God's will is salvation. And it will be done.
