The Lord’s Prayer: Our Father in Heaven
July 6th, 2008 by Glenn Hoburg The more we are confronted with real life, the more apt we are to pray, yet, at this very point we feel at a loss. Either not knowing how to pray, or sensing the weakness of our prayers. Jesus meets His disciples at this very point. When the admit they don’t know how to pray, rather than scold them, He invites them to learn. And, He begins by directing them to a Father in Heaven. This is the starting point for us and them and serves as the foundation for all good prayer. (Image: Rembrandt’s drawing of St. Jerome, praying)
