From pain into prayer - Angela Ashwin

Those times when it seems so difficult to pray are precisely the times when we need to be honest with God, facing our problems and fears with Him. It is then that we can become closer to Christ in his suffering, to be healed and redeemed by him.In this book, originally published as Prayer in the Shadows, Angela Ashwin writes of the different types of suffering that make it difficult to pray, such as hurt, misfortune or fear. She shows us how we can pray through our problems and come out on top. The book is divided into themes for ease of reference, and each short section ends with a reflection or quotation to help us take our own prayer further.Drawing on human experience and extensive theological knowledge, this is an honest and no-holes-barred guide to a vastly improved prayer life.
