A Soothing Anecdote For Our Frantic World

An evocative collection of prayers corresponding to the plants, objects and animals common to gardens and their relation to spiritual life. These range from "Sheers, A Prayer to Shape My Life" to "Spiders, A Prayer for Patience," to "Puddles, A Prayer to Appreciate Life's Messes" to "Vines, A Prayer in Caring for Children." Each prayer conjures up the imagery of its subject as it relates to spirituality. The dew is sent to "cleanse us of resentment and self-absorption." The garden gate, like the church door, reveals the glories of God. The garden swing implores us to be "amiable and polite in the back and forth of businessess enterprise..." Accompanying photographs beautifully compliment each prayer. A lovely volume to be savored throughout the year.
