'Relationships deepen through meaningful communication, and our relationship with the living God who created us will only develop and grow if we are in frequent communication with him.' Thus Susan Sayers offers her prayers with the hope that they will become the starting point which enables you to carry on praying in your own words, pouring out to God who both loves and listens whatever is on your mind or in your heart. There are acts of praise and wonder, thanksgiving and love, springing from ordinary, everyday work and relationships, and the real world we all inhabit. There are expressions of grief and pain, confusion and disappointment, which are just as important to bring to God as the good times and the moments of spiritual uplift. And there are frameworks for intercession which you can use daily as you pray for your church, your community, and the needs of the world.
