I like things that are like me. I like to watch movies that with the character that reminds me of me – even in a small way. I like to listen to music that has to do with something I’m going through or thinking about. I find it easier to like people that are like me.
Then I come to the Lord’s prayer. “Hallowed be thy name”
Hallowed means sacred, set apart, holy. It’s the kind of word that gives the impression “other than who I am”
God is other than I am. And I think that’s good. Cause while I like things that are like me. I am also evil at my core. And as God said in the Hebrew Scriptures: “Be holy for I am holy.” God wants me to be more like him.
