ABOUT PRAYER LIFE. Do you have a deep and fulfilling
relationship with your God? Or, is something missing in your spiritual life?
Are you yearning to grow closer to God and grow into your life in Christ? I
believe these yearnings are God's way of creating a spiritual vacuum in our
hearts, a vacuum ready to be filled with God. God wants a loving relationship
with you. The surest way to build that relationship is a dialogue, you speaking
and listening, God speaking and listening. By developing and practicing your
prayer life, God will speak to you and hear you in ways you can't imagine. This
book will help you to use the natural ebbs and flows of your life to enter into
transcendent conversation with God. It easily fits into your daily life, its
presence a gentle reminder of God's calling. Open it with joy, engage it with
devotion and "praise God from whom all blessings fall."
