Lord, Teach Us to Pray: Original and Unabridged (Christian Classics) Andrew Murray 1. izdevums

The disciples had been with Christ, and seen Him pray. They had learnt to understand something of the connection between His wondrous life in public, and His secret life of prayer. They had learnt to believe in Him as a Master in the art of prayer?none could pray like Him. And so they came to Him with the request, ?Lord, teach us to pray.?

Come, my brothers! Shall we not go to the Blessed Master and ask Him to enrol our names too anew in that school which He always keeps open for those who long to continue their studies in the Divine art of prayer and intercession? Yes, let us this very day say to the Master, as they did of old, ?Lord, teach us to pray.? As we meditate we shall find each word of the petition we bring to be full of meaning.

?Lord, teach us to pray.? Yes, to pray. This is what we need to be taught.
