Prayer is the raising of our hearts and minds to God. It is a holy and sacred experience open to everyone. We do not need to be experts in prayer to enjoy the opportunity to grow in prayerful awareness of our friendship with God. Sacred The Prayer Book can lead us into a life of prayer and, in doing so, inspire new expressions and depths of faith. The Scripture, prayers, and reflections in Sacred The Prayer Book will inspire you to a richer daily spiritual experience throughout the liturgical year and invite you to develop a closer relationship with God. Each day of Sacred The Prayer Book includes a Scripture reading and points of reflection, as well as a weekly topic enhanced by six steps of prayer and The Presence of God, Freedom, Consciousness, The Word, Conversation, and Conclusion. Sacred The Prayer Book is designed to help you stay faithful to your intention to deepen your spiritual journey. It is the perfect gift for your parish, campus ministry program, small group, friend, family member, or yourself.
I am finished with Sacred Space 2016 and have moved on to 2017
Once again I have finished another year of reading and praying with Sacred Space. I don't consider this a religious book but a spiritual one. It gives me pause each to reflect where I am with my God and how it's reflected in the life I live. My 2018 book is all ready to begin tomorrow morning and I am looking forward to the wisdom contained within and the few moments I take each day for spiritual reflection.
I not only really like the prayer start type questions at the end of the daily meditations but the “something to pray/think about short essays at the beginning of each week. I would recommend to anyone who is trying to deepen their prayer.
This is an excellent resource for daily prayer that I buy every year for my Kindle app. Sometimes I miss a day here or there, but it's one I always come back to.
