Publisher Description: This prayer companion is aimed at all whose pattern of daily prayer includes the reading of the Psalms. The guide teaches us to pray with the Psalms as people of faith have done for thousands of years. Readers learn to understand the Psalms of praise, lament, blessing and cursing today and to use them as a basis for daily thanks-giving and intercession. For each Psalm there is an introduction, a meditation based on a key verse or key theme and a practical suggestion for a creative response in prayer or action. |
