Love Beyond Measure


Book Description

We too must pray for our daily needs and the needs of others, to learn to depend on our Father, knowing that no matter what our daily bread means, God is providing. In this inspiring book, authors D.V. Whytes dissect the Lord's Prayer and encourage the reader to look at this centuries-old prayer in a new light. Love Beyond Measure helps readers to apply the Lord's Prayer directly to their lives by reflecting on personal experiences and Scripture. 'love Beyond Measure is a fresh look at the Lord's Prayer. Jesus gave us the perfect model for prayer, and the Whytes have shown that it contains lessons for practical living. One of His remarkable traits was His ability to use stories and natural situations to help us understand spiritual truths. The many references to life's situations help make the implications of the Lord's Prayer come alive.' —Reverend Wally Odum
