Praying for God’s Power in Your Times of Need Life’s storms serve as sharp reminders of our profound need for God’s strength. But how do we pray when the trials we face bring us to our knees? And how do we cry out to God when we don’t know how to put our heart’s trouble into words?

Easy to read and understand. With each devotion, comes an illustration of what we have in the Father because of Jesus Christ. Encouraging prayer with the knowledge that God hears you EVERY time you pray. No need for long drawn out prayers, just heartfelt. He includes a prayer at the end of each devotion. I found it very helpful to know that prayers need not be eloquent, just heartfelt.
