Grow closer to the Lord every day of the year with this special treasury of devotions that speaks especially to women. Enriching, thoughtful and prayerful reflections written by your favorite Living... This description may be from another edition of this product.
Sr. Joan offers yet another beautiful book for the flourishing of your soul. I once had a Benedictine monk tell me that prayer was as important to the soul as breathing is to the body. Monks often link prayer to breath, praying in rhythm with their inhale/exhale life of breathing as a way to "pray without ceasing". Chittister has been a voice of wisdom and spiritual growth for decades, and her latest work will deepen your spiritual life, no matter what your faith background. Breathe deeply and grow your spiritual life in this book.

A Gem!

Just a lovely, lovely book. Each time I read one of these reflections I see something different. Down to earth spirituality for folks who want real connection. I'm getting copies for every member of our Prayer Guild.
Like the Air You Breath

This book for me is like a breath of fresh air for my soul. I like the way it provides a number of golden nuggets for a deeper prayer life and allows me to stay with one topic for as long as I feel I need too. I feel no rush to move on to the next topic until I am done with one and allows for deep reflection. The mantra at the end of each topic helps to concretize the prayer experience for that particular topic. Also I wish to say while this author has been controversial at times, I find in this little book, the true self of the author which makes her other books a must read.
