LETTERS

What healing messages in the Sentinel of June 27, focused on the Lord's Prayer! Some years ago, while praying that prayer during a Sunday church service, I heard a man's voice from the row behind me that sounded liked my own brother's. It was not he. But as we prayed, "Forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors," I realized it was time to forgive my brother for all the teasing and disturbing ways in which he had treated his little sister when we were young, and to forgive myself for reacting to the teasing. How grateful I am for the loving relationship we have shared as adults since that healing service.

The issue of June 27 is a keeper. Thank you for the subject matter, the Lord's Prayer. In the first paragraph of Jill Gooding's article, she mentioned that "millions of people millions of times daily throughout the world" repeat this remarkable prayer.
