description: 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 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."
