Synopsis

When things get tough, when major tragedies happen, when personal crises occur, human beings the world over have always turned to prayer. It is one of the simplest and most common spiritual practices. Most children are introduced to formal spirituality by learning to talk to God in their prayers. Through prayer we share our fears, hopes and needs with the Higher Power that sustains us, we give thanks for all our blessings, so that we don't take for granted and we humble ourselves before something greater. Prayer is more than giving thanks or petitioning an all-powerful deity with our personal desires. Prayers express our yearning for spiritual awakening, enticing the Higher Power to grace us with a blissful revelation of its constant presence. Prayer is an age-old spiritual tecnique for communicating with the Divine, for merging the mind with the Power of Life. It is about using words to bring to our awareness the quiet stillness of God. "Prayer for Everyday Living" is a practical exploration of prayer in its many forms, combining insightful text with prayers from the world's spiritual traditions. Practical guidance on using different techniques and overcoming problems in our prayer life should inspire us to journey deeper into the mysteries of prayer.
