Synopsis

With this collection of meditations and prayers, the authors hope to provide a pathway to a deeper experience of prayer and gratitude. A serious and passionate pursuit of prayer opens new experiences of gratitude. Exploring more deeply the experience of gratitude increases the discipline and power of prayer. A symbiotic relationship between the two is realized, drawing the reader into the wisdom of F. Scott Fitzgerald, ""All life is just a progression toward, and then a recession from one phrase--'I love you.'"" Loving God, and experiencing God's love, is central to human experience. A progression toward God in prayer and gratitude opens such a genuine and vital relationship.
