Heart to Heart
Heart to Heart - Reflective thoughts and prayers by Nick Fawcett.Is there a right way to pray? Definitely not. What works for one leaves another cold, so much depending on our background, character, tradition and, above all, our understanding and experience of God. The one essential is that prayer comes from the heart, honestly expressing what we want to say to God. Some find that the only way to do this is through extemporising their own prayers; others find this well-nigh impossible, needing written prayers to help articulate their own thoughts and feelings. Most fall somewhere in the middle, quite happy to pray privately and personally, but finding written prayers a helpful stimulus.This book aims to provide such a stimulus, offering 75 reflective prayers exploring the nature and journey of Christian discipleship. Drawn from various of Nick Fawcett's study books published over the recent years, each is prefaced by a brief passage of Scripture followed by a short introduction, both designed to set the context of the prayer itself. The prayers are conversational in tone, reflecting the fact that God invites us to open our hearts to him as a friend, in the knowledge that his heart is open to us in turn.
