Download or read book My Diary of Upside Down Prayers written by Deborah Ogefere-Onyekwuluje and published by Syncterface Media. This book was released on 2013 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1995 I had a life changing encounter; an encounter that steered my relationship with God in a whole new direction. Until then I had excluded God from my every day affairs but after this experience I gradually began to develop a new way of having communion with God: A Conversational Way of Praying. Now, God is very much a part of my day to day life. With each passing day I realise that God craves relationship with me and He is willing to take me just as I am. With Him I know I can simply be me. I can chat with Him wherever and whenever, and I experience a personal touch of His love, His humour and His pure goodness. "My Diary of Upside Down Prayers" is a compilation of some of the fun times I have spent with Heavenly Father, Lord Jesus and Holy Spirit. Within the pages of my diary you will find answers to questions such as, "Who is HF?", "Does God knit?", "Is reincarnation a part of the Christian faith?", just to mention a few. You may also find yourself catching on to the Upside Down way of speaking which, though may sometimes come across as informal, is in no way irreverent. But more importantly it is my prayer that the words on the pages of this little book will encourage you to invite God into your everyday life and to comfortably be yourself in His presence.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Because God Loves Them Even More Than You Do It’s our instinct as parents to shield our children from harm. But our true responsibility is to raise children equipped to live well for God even in the midst of struggle. Upside-Down Prayers for Parents encourages us to pray for our children in ways we may never have before: • I pray you’ll get caught doing things wrong—and experience the power of confession. • I pray your prayers will go unanswered—and you’ll find a deeper trust in Him. • I pray you’ll fail in things that don’t matter—and learn what matters to God. • I pray you’ll encounter battles—and discover that God is your greatest ally. By turning our prayers “upside down,” we not only learn to release our children to the care of God alone, we also uncover how our own desires need to be submitted to God’s will. Each entry in this thirty-one-day devotional includes a short reflection, a Scripture verse, and ideas to jump-start conversations between you and your child or teenager. Together you’ll discover a deeper trust in God that will help you make it through the upside-down times with a right-side-up perspective.

Download or read book A Prayer Journal written by Flannery O'Connor and published by Farrar, Straus and Giroux. This book was released on 2013-11-12 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "I would like to write a beautiful prayer," writes the young Flannery O'Connor in this deeply spiritual journal, recently discovered among her papers in Georgia. "There is a whole sensible world around me that I should be able to turn to Your praise." Written between 1946 and 1947 while O'Connor was a student far from home at the University of Iowa, A Prayer Journal is a rare portal into the interior life of the great writer. Not only does it map O'Connor's singular relationship with the divine, but it shows how entwined her literary desire was with her yearning for God. "I must write down that I am to be an artist. Not in the sense of aesthetic frippery but in the sense of aesthetic craftsmanship; otherwise I will feel my loneliness continually . . . I do not want to be lonely all my life but people only make us lonelier by reminding us of God. Dear God please help me to be an artist, please let it lead to You." O'Connor could not be more plain about her literary ambition: "Please help me dear God to be a good writer and to get something else accepted," she writes. Yet she struggles with any trace of self-regard: "Don't let me ever think, dear God, that I was anything but the instrument for Your story." As W. A. Sessions, who knew O'Connor, writes in his introduction, it was no coincidence that she began writing the stories that would become her first novel, Wise Blood, during the years when she wrote these singularly imaginative Christian meditations. Including a facsimile of the entire journal in O'Connor's own hand, A Prayer Journal is the record of a brilliant young woman's coming-of-age, a cry from the heart for love, grace, and art.
