In the depths of every human heart lies a longing for something more—a desire that only God can fulfill. Yet our desires are often disordered, leading us away from rather than toward our Creator. How do we align our deepest yearnings with God's perfect will?

In this profound spiritual work, you will discover the Lord's Prayer as more than a formula of words—it is a divine pathway of transformation, a school that reshapes our desires according to the heart of God. Drawing from the rich insights of Saints Augustine and Thomas Aquinas, this meditation guides readers through each petition of the prayer Jesus taught, uncovering its power to reorder our souls toward their ultimate purpose: eternal communion with God.

Our Father: The Lord's Prayer as a School of Desire invites you to:

Discover why the Lord's Prayer contains everything we should rightfully desire and in the perfect order
Understand how each petition aligns with a Gift of the Holy Spirit and one of the Beatitudes
Learn to make this prayer truly your own, allowing it to sanctify your mind, will, and desires
Experience the freedom that comes when our prayers reflect God's desires for us rather than our own limited vision

Whether you've recited these sacred words countless times or are encountering their depth anew, this book will transform your understanding of prayer itself—not as a means of changing God's will, but as the path by which God changes us.

Begin the journey of allowing the prayer Christ taught to form you into the person God created you to be, where every desire of your heart glorifies Him and leads you to perfect beatitude.
