Ancient Prayer: Channeling Your Faith 365 Days of the Year

by Rachel C. Weingarten

Find Daily Comfort in Ancient Prayer   "Kol Hatchalot Kashot." All beginnings are difficult. New graduate, newlywed, first-time mother, or new job. Every single new beginning is difficult. Not just the onset of an illness or the beginning of grad school, or the first weeks of a job search, but all new situations present challenges in our lives. How do we cope?  Ancient Prayer offers daily inspiration and wisdom from the past that ground us and help us put things into perspective, using biblical texts and prayers by early philosophers, poets, and spiritual leaders. These bite-sized lessons remind us to appreciate the truly important things in life and not lose sight of the higher power that guides us all.

I love this book. I read the first prayer the day I knew I was getting divorced, and it was exactly the words I was looking for. I love the diversity of the prayers and the simplicity of them as well; it's a great gift to give and receive. Highly recommend.
