PrayerStreaming: Staying in Touch with God All Day Long
Pray Your Way Through Your Day.
More than two thousand years ago Jesus taught about the importance of prayer and the apostle Paul urged Christians to “pray without ceasing.” Yet a rewarding prayer life seems almost impossible for those of us juggling busy schedules, family needs, friendships, home tasks, or a demanding job. We’d love to engage constantly with such as when we’re working, driving carpool, or folding socks. But how can we, when we spend so much of our days just racing from one thing to another?
The author of three other books on prayer, Janet Holm McHenry set out on a personal journey to learn how to draw even closer to God through this crucial spiritual discipline. Her findings led to PrayerStreaming, a life-changing guide to praying through the clutter and clatter of everyday life.
Tap into History’s Best Spiritual Wisdom Regarding Prayer.
Drawing from eight of the most respected and time-tested spiritual classics on the subject of prayer, as well as personal experiences of deepened intimacy with God, Janet Holm McHenry illustrates that incorporating prayer into the rhythms of life is in fact far easier than you think–and more beneficial than you could ever dream

Great overview of prayer and prayers
This is a very interesting overview of a number of influential devotees of the Lord. Influential because of their devotion and personal practice.
I always find it uplifting and motivating to hear about other’s experiences in prayer life and this book provides that in bucketfuls.
The author has researched the biographies the individuals she mentions in the chapters of the book and reveals inspiring episodes from their lives, and direct quotes revealing their motivations and thoughts on prayer.
The author also has a deep prayer life and this is apparent her treatment of the lives of these prayer warriors and the attention to detail of the relevant points for discussion.
This is a great review of prayer and prayers that will broaden your own approach to your prayer life.

We're to "pray without ceasing," but what does that look like in our daily lives. The author has done a thorough study of eight people throughout history who discovered for themselves what it means to stay in touch with God during each day. She discovered, among other things, that we can be as close to God was we choose to be. And just to practice praying throughout each day, conscious of His presence.

I am rereading this and think it is one that I will read again. I am gaining more from it the second time through. If you want to be inspired to have a closer walk with God, read this!
