Review Quotes:
'Dipping into this book is like rummaging through a box of precious stones and every so often picking one out with a cry of delight. These are prayers that, with refreshing confidence and deep trust, relate everyday life to the life of heaven. Here is wisdom and inspiration for every believer who wants to enrich their life of prayer and to refill their own box of jewels.'
John Pritchard, bishop, writer and speaker
