Father Guardini opens with what he calls a `gateway' to the Lord's Prayer, namely 'Thy will be done.' We find him, however, delving deeply into the petition to examine what is meant by earth, and what and where is heaven. Does the prayer really require a special 'gateway' - is not 'Our Father' a sufficient opening for us? Fine passages are to be found in the book, notably on 'Thy Kingdom Come.' Those who are ready to use the book thoughtfully, with slow and devotional reading, will find many suggestive ideas.“ | ||
