God and You

Different people approach the business of praying in different ways. For some it is, quite frankly, an obligation, like paying taxes. For other people prayer is a means of controlling events, and for those concerned with human fulfillment prayer is a way of delving into themselves, achieving self-knowledge. This book maintains that prayer is first and foremost a personal relationship and that the most fruitful prayer is that which builds upon and enhances relationship. It shows us how we can develop an intimate relationship with God. It suggests various methods of prayer that will deepen and strengthen our friendship with him. †
