The Way of Love: Pray

by Church Publishing Incorporated

A brief guide on how this spiritual practice can enrich your life. Jesus teaches us to come before God with humble hearts, boldly offering our thanksgivings and concerns to God or simply listening for God's voice in our lives and in the world. Whether in thought, word or deed, individually or corporately, when we pray we invite and dwell in God's loving presence. Jesus often removed himself from the crowds to quiet himself and commune with God. He gave us examples of how to pray, including the Lord's Prayer. "Will you continue in the prayers?" "I will with God's help." This series of seven Little Books of Guidance are designed for you to discover how following certain practices can help you follow Jesus more fully in your daily life.

Once again, it started out slow, but turned out fantastic. I'm sure there's an element of what the reader is bringing to the lecture going on here due to the devotional purpose of this prose. Luckily this book was just what I needed. As one who spent a fair amount of time in prayer and a large portion of my life feeling like I was "doing it wrong", it is refreshing to read of other perspectives on prayer and the contemplative life. These books are super short, and can be read in one sitting. Low investment commitment, potentially big payoff.
