Synopsis

A book about making prayer an essential part of one's life, specifically prayer for the inflowing of what is known as Divine Love, the very Essence of Divinity, Making It Personal covers a wide range of aspects about prayer--its history, use by Catholic contemplatives and mystics down through the ages, the problem of distractions, as well as methods of purification, what is Divine Love, and the 'soul's longings'. Heavily referenced, with liberal use of quotes from Scripture, early Christians, medieval and modern-day saints and writers--all organized and presented logically with a unique and approachable writing style.

Both a scholarly work and a personal one, Making It Personal offers the reader a bird's-eye view of the author's own prayer space, a discussion about forming one's own 'unseen prayer circle', and the author's personal 'Formal Prayer'. Also included is a glossary of terms and several modern-day testimonies of 'divine intervention'.

If you have ever wondered if contemplative prayer was meant for you or not, you need to read this book.
