The Lord’s Prayer (1): Our Father who art in heaven

What a wonderful thing it is to know that God is our Father. We don't come, in prayer, to a faraway God, who has no real interest in us. We come to our Father. We come to him through Jesus, his Son. In Jesus, we see love. It is the love of our heavenly Father. …
