Description
Still your soul and rest your mind as you cultivate a purposeful prayer life by focusing your thoughts on God's Word.
Do you notice that even when your body is not moving, your mind is racing? Anxiety, to-do lists, and the spiral of negative thought patterns often keep us from the stillness we long for. In Present in Prayer, award-winning author Jennifer Tucker invites you to allow the Holy Spirit to speak through God's Word and renew your mind through the practice of Christian meditation.
As in her first book, Breath as Prayer, Jennifer shares a powerful prayer practice in this beautifully illustrated book that is deep yet accessible. Each of the 30 meditations offers you:
A gentle call to silence, an opening prayer, and a thoughtful reflection on a Bible verse
Guided meditation on Scripture using the centuries-old practice of lectio divina-a framework of Christian meditation that helps you slow down and linger on God's Word
A prayer of surrender and prompts for how to live out the truths God is speaking to you
Inspired art to draw you into each meditation as you consider what is lovely, true, excellent, and worthy of praise
With a beautiful foil-accented cover and full-color original illustrations throughout, Present in Prayer is an ideal gift for:
Anyone experiencing stress, anxiety, or overwhelming thoughts
Those who want to establish a more regular prayer practice
Prayer groups and prayer ministries
You're not in a hurry. You're on a journey. Cultivate a more purposeful and peaceful prayer life and greater intimacy with God as you focus your thoughts on His Word.
