The 25th anniversary edition of this favorite companion reconnects
a new generation with timeless Catholic spirituality with
refreshing changes that create a powerful contemporary resource.
This book is presented by the Old Catholic Church of the United
States. The Old Catholic Church of the United States is a Catholic
Family of Faith, based within the United States. As inheritors of
Apostolic Succession from the Western Latin (Catholic) Church, the
Ancient Oriental Churches and the Eastern Byzantine (Orthodox)
Churches, we possess a rich theological heritage. It is a
sacramental church, embracing the fullness of Christianity as
expressed within Catholic understanding. It stands, holding fast to
the teachings of the ancient faith, in a modern society that is
often hostile, towards Christians in general and Catholics in
particular, and chooses to obey the timeless message of Christ
rather than yield to the "Spirit of the Age."

'These prayers help me to pray... All prayer is talking to God as
to a friend, and it is God's closest friends who can teach me how
to do that best.' Timothy Radcliffe OPThis treasury of prayers for
the Third Christian Millennium offers practical spiritual guidance
for an increasingly busy world.The late Cardinal Basil Hume, in his
Introduction, writes that the need for us to be people of prayer
has never been more urgent. We know that unless we are deeply
rooted in a sense of God's presence and able to refer all things to
God, then our pilgrimage into the future will be marked more by
uncertainty than by the peace which is God's gift.The book's
extensive range includes favourite Catholic prayers such as the
Rosary and the Stations of the Cross, along with others that may be
less familiar, organized under many different themes and topics.
Helpful introductions and a pattern of daily prayers make this book
nothing less than a course in Christian spirituality.The book is
for people approaching Christian prayer for the first time, and
also for those who want to begin afresh. It will be especially
helpful to young people, and the parents and teachers who want to
help them learn to pray in the living tradition of the Church.
Today, the boundary between holidays and pilgrimages is blurred. So
how can we make a journey in the spirit of a pilgrimage, whether it
be following an old pilgrim trail, or walking the streets where we
live, or simply travelling within ourselves? This volume aims to
help by providing material for a week's journey in prayer. Celtic
in flavour, it offers poems, Bible readings, psalms, hymns and
prayers for a seven day pilgrimage of the heart. It is bilingual,
with each page provided in both English and Welsh.
Published to coincide with the new weekday lectionary of the Church
of England, this prayer companion is aimed at all whose pattern of
daily prayer includes the reading of the Psalms. The guide teaches
us to pray with the Psalms as people of faith have done for
thousands of years. Readers learn to understand the Psalms of
praise, lament, blessing and cursing today and to use them as a
basis for daily thanks-giving and intercession. For each Psalm
there is an introduction, a meditation based on a key verse or key
theme and a practical suggestion for a creative response in prayer
or action.
Whether you have made prayer a habit for many years or this is your
first prayer devotional, inspiration is waiting for you in the
daily prayers written here. Ultimately, prayer is a conversation
with God. You don't need to use fancy words or recite long passages
of Scripture. Just talk to God. Open your heart. He loves you, and
he is listening to every word you say. Some days your prayers may
be filled with gratitude, some days with repentance, and some with
need. Just lay your heart and your prayers at the Father's feet and
wait for his powerful response.
You feel as if the world is closing in on you. You have trouble in
your relationships. You have a nagging something in your mind, but
you can't quite name it and it won't go away. You have trouble with
anger. You wonder what your purpose in life is. You have faith and
hope that come from your religious journey, but they seem to be
waning. Some days any or all of these gang up on you. Who can help
you? Where do you turn? Is there someone who can help you to make
sense of it all? These questions and more are the very content of
honest prayer. Your most trusted friend is the one who made you.
Our creator is available to sustain and guide us on the whole
journey of life. In the ups, downs, and in betweens, Spirit is
present to uphold. Prayer is the connection point of our present
circumstance to the One who provides hope and meaning. In Morning
Glory and Evening Grace, the prayers are an expression of daily
life. They come from the heart and soul and are offered to a God
who desires to know and help us. Use them to inspire your own
expression of authentic faith.
We must position ourselves to receive. In any circumstance where a
giver is giving, the recipient must position themselves to receive.
Spiritually you cannot receive a gift from God unless you position
yourself to receive that gift. In fact, if you are not in position,
God's blessing will crush you, it will cause the opposite effect
than was intended. Cameron and Caden Sturtz were dying from a rare
liver disease until their parents decided to position themselves,
to let go and let God take control even if the boys were to lose
their lives. This miracle blessing was crushing their family until
they were willing to position themselves, which was the hardest
decision ever. The Lord asks what you are willing to sacrifice for
the harvest He has for you without knowing what it looks like.
Remember what He sacrificed for you. In Genesis 32:24-32 there is a
story about Jacob that proves the point about positioning. - Learn
how to position yourself to receive the Father's blessings. -
Discover how to let go and let God control every facet of your
life. - Be blessed by this testimony of God's miraculous healing
power. - Those who persevere and "overcome" will receive the
blessings of the Father!
