Description
New meaning and spirit for everyday living - this is a gift of prayer. In this unique resource, Judith Lawrence offers a rich variety of stories, reflections, prayers, and meditations to help us cope with difficult times, celebrate joyful times, and live with the in-between times.
Meditations are arranged alphabetically for easy use, as occasion suggests or your prayer schedule dictates. They include answers to prayer, finding God through music, forgiveness and healing, love in action, meditation while breaking bread, sickness and suffering, walking with God. Here is keen but gentle wisdom to assist our quest for soul strength and divine guidance.
The seventeenth-century monk Brother Lawrence advised "that we should establish ourselves in … God’s presence." Judith Lawrence gives us the means to accomplish this goal.
