Do you ever feel the need to pray but can’t always find the right words? If so, this fresh collection of heart-felt prayers is for you.
Encompassing more than 200 topics – from your own personal needs, and the needs of people around you, to the needs and issues facing the whole world – here is a companion you can turn to again and again when something’s on your mind.
The book is in four parts. Part One has over 100 prayers for you to pray for yourself at different times in your life; Part Two has prayers you can say for others – or maybe for yourself when the need arises; Part Three covers issues that affect people all over the world; and Part Four has prayers and blessings for the precious times when you just want to give thanks and celebrate the good things in life.
Each of the prayers in this collection is like a jewel, freshly cut from the rock of human experience and shaped in a way that helps you to reflect on the light and shade of your own life, and to draw on God’s guidance and strength for the rest of your journey.
