Prayers for Everyday Use Jonathan Ridler

Prayer sustains life. It is our response to the impulse of God within us. To pray at all times, in all places, and in every circumstance, is to maintain that lifeline to God. This collection of original prayers is suitable for individuals and communities, for private devotions or public worship. There are prayers here for most occasions, including praise, intercession, joy, sorrow, repentance, thanksgiving, birth, families, sickness, death, guidance, protection, and the Holy Days and seasons of the Church from Advent through to Christ the King. Each prayer has an associated image that reflects the nature of the prayer in some manner. It is the author's hope that the prayers may inspire the reader to pray more often, to be more mindful of Our Lord in all things, and to move the reader to manifestly participate in the Body of Christ in thought, word and deed.
