Day 46 • Question 121
121 Why is the word 'our' added?
That immediately, at the very beginning of our prayer, he might arouse in us childlike reverence and trust toward God, who is not to be approached with dread or terror, but with childlike confidence and love, as children approach an affectionate father. 1
