Beschreibung
This prayer guide was commissioned by God. 'Write a book and show people how to speak to Me,' He told author Teresa O'Driscoll. This is her work of obedience. Do you speak to God from your heart, listen for His reply and do what He asks? By sharing experiences of Christ and Bible-based private prayers, Teresa O'Driscoll shows how you too can have enlightening conversations with God. Through simple meditations, confide your troubles, listen expectantly for answers and overcome fear and doubt by allowing Christ to guide you through the tests of daily life, boosting self-confidence and resilience.
