Synopsis

Discover a practical, uplifting guide to prayer, fasting, and giving that helps you grow closer to God every day.

This edition distills Ernest Holmes’s thoughtful approach to prayer and the disciplined life, showing how prayer moves the will of God by aligning our actions with the divine order. It frames three notable duties—prayer, fasting, and almsgiving—as interwoven practices that deepen surrender, discipline, and generosity. You’ll find clear explanations, enduring ideas, and relatable illustrations that invite steady, hopeful practice.

  • Learn how prayer can move rather than change God’s fixed purpose, and how devotion and praise fit into daily life.
  • Explore the uses of praise, adoration, thanksgiving, and worship as parts of a balanced prayer life.
  • See how fasting and self-control support a freer, more powerful spiritual walk.
  • Understand how almsgiving can express real repentance and repair, even when restitution isn’t fully possible.
Ideal for readers seeking a thoughtful, steady path to deeper prayer and practical spirituality that fits into daily life. This edition is a solid companion for Lent, personal devotion, or study groups exploring how to live the three duties with patience, hope, and generosity.

Présentation de l'éditeur

Lent. (i) In the first place it is interesting, which cannot be said of all religious books. It holds the attention throughout. I llustrations, quotations from the poets, apt sayings, come in just where you want them to make the points clear, and carry the reader along. I think many a mother who has prayed in vain (as she thinks) for the life of her child, will be grateful for the quotation from Browning s Isobels Child :O Mother, Mother, loose thy prayer !C hrist sname hath made it strong, It bindeth me, it holdeth me, With its most loving cruelty, For floating my new soul along The happy heavenly air x She will see that the answer has really come in the best way. 1P.
