Teach us, Lord, how to pray. And we got this remarkable prayer that's so very short. How can it be called a summary of the Gospels? The key is to understand how to pray it with the end in mind. Remember that life tip that says "Begin with the End in Mind"? When we keep the end in mind, then the petitions make more sense. "Hallowed be Thy name" can sound like "don't use the Lord's name in vain." But what it's really getting at is that we want God to come more fully into his creation now. We are asking Him to do the things that make his name Holy, in anticipation of when he arrives fully present in His creation. Learn why the Lord's Prayer is an eschatological prayer, and how to set yourself up to pray it as a follower of Christ.
