The Lord’s Prayer: A Gate

"ALL the things that you need for yourself, or for your children, traced back, are found, in their initial forms, in the Lord's prayer. This is a birthright prayer, belonging to every man. A gate it is, through which every living soul may pass. Each petition is a separate gate. And beyond is an infinite variety of blessed things. This gate opens, as it were, into a garden where are growing fruits and flowers in wonderful profusion. Endless diversities of things are there; and all of them are appropriate to the utterance of this prayer."
