The Look of the Soul Ever Toward its Heavenly Home
Matthew 6:9
After this manner therefore pray you: Our Father which are in heaven, Hallowed be your name.


It is related of Cicero when he was banished from Italy, end of Demosthenes when he was banished from Athens, that they wept every time they looked towards their own country, so great was their love for their fatherland, and so keen their desire to return thither: so should our soul long after our home above.
