983A: Thine Is the Kingdom
When we pray “Thine is the Kingdom”, we are bowing before the One Who owns us and acknowledging His ownership. This world is His; He owns it. Our life is His; He purchased it. Eternity is His; He will reign over it. Is He our King at the altar of worship? Is He our King when the bullets begin to fly, and the bombs begin to fall? Our will needs to surrender to God’s for His is the Kingdom.
