God fully understands the basic needs of his children and so the remainder of the prayer speaks eloquently of God’s interest in individual lives. As the source of all good gifts, He is the one who bestows daily mercy.
As the righteous Father He pardons our iniquities, as a wise guide through life He leads us away from temptation and evil. Nothing which the soul of man requires is to be omitted from our daily prayers. And nothing is anything too difficult for our heavenly Father to provide.
Rarely was ever so much expressed in such an intimate and brief discourse. Here is the panorama of man’s entire need. Here is the complete realization of our relationship to the Heavenly Father. Wise is the child of God who emulates the prayer that his Lord modeled on that day.
Luke 11:1-4
Matthew 6:9-15
