Our Father
WHO ART IN HEAVEN!
The power that rules the stars — the love that calls us His own.

The Majesty of the Father in Heaven

When we utter the words “Our Father who art in Heaven,” we step into the most profound mystery of existence — that the infinite Creator of galaxies and time itself invites us to call Him Father. It is the first line of the Lord’s Prayer, yet it holds an entire theology of love, power, and belonging.

To call God Father is to recognize that the One who commands the stars is not distant. His power does not crush; it protects. His majesty does not isolate; it embraces. The blazing brilliance of Heaven is not a throne of separation, but a home for all who believe.

The image of the Father — eternal, wise, radiant with divine light — reminds us that authority and tenderness coexist perfectly in Him. The triangle glowing behind symbolizes the Holy Trinity: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Within that sacred geometry lies the mystery of unity — three persons, one divine essence, infinite in wisdom, mercy, and love.

Every breath we take and every heartbeat is sustained by the same hand that hung the constellations in the sky. The “power that rules the stars” is not abstract energy; it is personal love. Creation is not merely the product of might but the overflow of divine affection. To belong to Him is to know that the universe is not indifferent — it was spoken into being by love itself.

When Jesus taught His disciples to pray, He bridged the gap between Heaven and Earth. “Our Father” was not a ritual phrase; it was an invitation into relationship. It proclaimed equality of access — God is not my Father alone, but our Father — a Father to all humanity. That collective word “our” breaks down barriers, reminding us that before God, all are brothers and sisters.

So when we pray these words, we join our voices with the chorus of angels and the song of creation. We remember that above the storms of the world, there reigns a Father whose gaze is steady, whose justice is perfect, and whose mercy is endless.
