The call disconnected, but I still held the receiver. I felt detached. This couldn’t really be happening. It must be a mistake. The realization washed over me that Ken was in trouble, but I never imagined how critical the situation was or the extent of how our lives would change. What happens when life turns against you, when from complete darkness you cry, “Where is the light?” Where is hope when the pit of pain you’re in is deeper than your worst nightmare? Who do you turn to when you feel like you can’t take one step further? Where is God in all this pain? Can we trust Him? After her husband suffered catastrophic injuries on a construction site, Sharon had to face the reality that her life had changed and would never be the same again. By turning to God, and confronting the challenges in her own faith walk, she determined to face head-on a more difficult journey than any she had imagined for her young family.

It's been said that Centering Prayer is like two friends sitting together in silence, just being in each other's presence—completely natural and comfortable. Yet, Centering Prayer is sometimes viewed as too mysterious, too escapist, too hard. At first, it even appeared that way to the author, but events in his life and his further studies about prayer changed his views. Through Muyskens' insightful guidance, you'll explore a method of prayer that goes deeper than verbal conversations with God. This book teaches: silent communion with God a method of being open to the gift of God's presence a way of receiving a deep ad intimate relationship with God Each day's reading has a focal scripture verse and the author's reflection, ending with simple suggestions for contemplative prayer. You'll begin with as few as 5 minutes of Centering Prayer. By following the guidance in this book for 40 days, you will be led to a closer relationship with God. As you progress through the daily scripture and meditative readings in Forty Days to a Closer Walk with God, you'll find greater understanding and fresh awareness of Jesus' promise, "I am with you always."

It was only a few years ago when God shed his light on me and anointed me with the gift of writing poetry. He opened my eyes to understand from the scripture that I read. A powerful message came down from above and descended here on me. The grace of God bestowed on me the special gift that was given. It burns in my soul and lets the words flow on the paper it was written. May I thank him daily for what he has given to me. May my heart yearn to do his will, to use this gift he placed in me, to see the mighty hand of God, the creator of all things, who used a humble servant and made her a child of the king!
