Sometimes prayers flow easily, and people can talk to God as naturally as they would to a dear friend. At other times, though the words just won't come, no matter how hard they try to pray. So what can Christians do when they can't pray, or when they need a prayer for a specific occasion and don't know where to start? They can turn to the prayers of other believers to be carried into God's presence. *Prayers for Life's Ordinary and Extraordinary Moments **is a unique collection of prayers that give readers words to pray for those times they can't find words of their own.
