The Seven Mysteries of the Lord's Prayer
According to the Orthodox tradition, the Lord’s Prayer is the key to all prayer. Indeed, a careful survey of the great treasures of our Fathers on the subject of prayer indicates that all genuine prayers are related to the Lord’s Prayer, and that the latter represents a fullness which is not to be found elsewhere. In the earliest manual of Church life and order, the Didache of the Twelve Apostles (1st c.), the recital of the Lord’s Prayer three times daily is mentioned as an obligation for the faithful. This is reiterated in the seventh book of the Apostolic Constitutions (ch. 24), a later manual (3rd c.), which deals with “the manner of life of the Christians, the Divine Eucharist and Christian Initiation.”

A Invitation to a Deeper Faith, Hope, & Love
St. Makarios' profound insights into the Lord's Prayer are immaculate gems from a spiritual master. How often have we simply said the prayer without a thought, without care for its sublime meanings & indications? Have many of us even truly inquired into the mysteries of this most holy prayer?
Here, St. Makarios' enlightened commentaries open the soul to contemplation of our Divine Lord's teachings in His directly revealed prayer. May we all drink of the blessings of these lessons & grow closer to the Heavenly Kingdom.
