A collection of short stories, each about 2 - 3 pages long, of individual's experiences with personal prayer and answers to those prayers. Inspiring and faith promoting. If you enjoy the Latter-day Saint Voices features in the monthly Ensign magazine, you will enjoy this book.

Another in this series of inspirational true stories, this one details answers to prayers, some miracles, some small tender mercies. Nice encouragement to help readers meet everyday challenges.

I'm in the process of reading this little book. It's greatly encouraging. It Tells me, through the little short stories, that Heavenly Father really is aware of us at all times and in all places. Through these stories I've received counsel that I can use in my life. There are experiences shared, that are similar to experiences I've had. Heavenly Father truly does love us all, no matter where or when we've lived. We are important to Him and He wants us to be important to each other.

We are children of a loving Heavenly Father who cares about all aspects of our lives, even those common, everyday troubles that hold us back and test our patience. Through prayer, we can seek help in finding lost keys, traversing snowy roads, and working through difficult situations with children and other loved ones.

This book helped me to remember experiences of my own and to understand that if I am not getting answers to my prayers, there may be adjustments that need to be made in the questions, the intensity, attitude or listening openly. A great spiritual boost.

This is a compilation of short stories of real people and how they received answers to their prayers.

A few moving stories, several yawners, and some that I guess they had to include because they were written by friends or something.
