Overview
An invitation to a more participatory relationship with God through the power of prayer.
Nothing is more remarkableāor more beautifulāthan an ordinary life, quietly transformed by prayer. This is the life that Deborah Smith Douglas chroniclesāand invites readers intoāin her lovely collection of essays and poems. Drawing from events as simple as breakfast with her five-year-old daughter or waiting in line at the post office, Douglas shows how a loving relationship with God can be nurtured in small ways every day. āWithout my ever really intending it,ā she writes, āmy own lifeāas a wife and mother, daughter and friendāhas taught me to see God hidden in the ordinary, to watch for God under the surface of things as a fisherman watches for fish.ā
Woven into each of these pieces, along with reflections on the authorās experiences, are guidelines for readers watching for God in their own uniqueāand ordinaryālives. Divided into four sectionsāWays of Praying, Healing, Spiritual Companionship, and FruitfulnessāThe Praying Life will help Christians move from awareness of Godās presence in their lives to a deep participation in Godās love.
