One hundred relatable prayers for talking to God during all those busy, joyful, hard, or mundane moments of each day when you can't seem to find the right words. Prayer--the act of entering into conversation with God--is one of the hallmarks of our faith. Yet, prayer also tends to be one of the spiritual practices believers struggle with the most. So how do we cultivate a lifestyle of "praying without ceasing"? Tama Fortner, author and ghostwriter of several bestselling books, understands this challenge all too well. But she also knows the peace and comfort that comes when we bring every moment of our days--from the small annoyances and great joys to the seemingly insurmountable challenges and seasons of doubt--to the feet of our Father. In Prayers for Each Moment, she shares one hundred prayers that you can turn to whether you're feeling worried, excited, conflicted, or grateful. Each prayer comes with a related Scripture verse, and an additional section includes Prayers to Pray Together. Prayers include: When Five O'clock on Friday Seems Like It Will Never ComeWhen I Need to Hear God's VoiceWhen I'm Awake in the NightWhen I've Absolutely Crushed ItThe struggle to know how to pray is nothing new. Even the disciples asked Jesus to teach them how to pray, and he gave them--and us--the beautiful template we now know as "the Lord's Prayer." Just as we can use that prayer as a springboard for the cries of our own heart, may the prayers in this book help encourage you to practice your own rhythm of sharing your heart with God.
