Golden Gate of Prayer

 

The Lord's Prayer is short, but every word of it is laden with precious meaning. In its few petitions it covers the whole field of prayer. It is easy to repeat its sentences, for it is hard to say it through as a real prayer, for it means the consecration of our whole life to God, and the submission of will, affections, and service to him. These chapters are not expositions --- they are no more than studies. Their aim is to help in a devotional way by calling attention to the meaning of the several petitions, which to often is lost to our thought because of our familiarity with the sacred words.
