Prayers for Our Lives Dr Mel Lawrenz

Sometimes we know exactly what to pray, and sometimes it seems hard to find the right words. That is not unusual. That is why Christians have been writing prayers to support each other for centuries, based on the values and the standards we find in Scripture.

In Prayers for Our Lives author and pastor Mel Lawrenz offers 95 different prayers to be used in times of distress, on special occasions, and as daily patterns. For instance:

Morning PrayersEvening PrayersMealtime PrayersFor the FamilyFor WorshipWhen We Are IllWhen We Are DiscouragedFor Faith and SalvationWhen We Are TemptedFor FriendsFor the NationWhen Someone Gets MarriedPraise to Christ the LordThanks for a Major AchievementWhen We Need Guidanceand dozens more

You can use these prayers in private times, in a group, for a special occasion, or in church. Or adapt them as you see fit.

ENDORSEMENT

"Mel writes with disarming honesty, and each prayer is like a cry of the heart. Here child-like simplicity meets sage-like wisdom, all of it spoken so intimately that living breath still seems to fill each word. Lifelines indeed."

-Mark Buchanan, author, pastor, professor
