Book Description

The busier we are, the more we need to withdraw awhile to remind ourselves of what is important, to keep our heads straight and pointing in the right direction... The goal of these prayers is connecting with and resting in God, not trying to learn anything or to make 'progress in the spiritual life.' Remember, God will lead us as God will ..." (from the introduction). Using the Bible, passages from other great works of literature, and evocative original prayers, William O'Malley, SJ, has composed a four-week cycle of daily morning, midday, and evening prayers. The prayers may be said quickly, but each one provides a rich source for further meditation.
