Prayers for Our Lives: 95 Lifelines to God for Everyday Circumstances

Sometimes we know exactly what to pray, and sometimes it seems hard to find the right words. That is not unusual. That is why Christians have been writing prayers to support each other for centuries, based on the values and the standards we find in Scripture.

In Prayers for Our Lives author and pastor Mel Lawrenz offers 95 different prayers to be used in times of distress, on special occasions, and as daily patterns. For instance:

Morning Prayers
Evening Prayers
Mealtime Prayers
For the Family
For Worship
When We Are Ill
When We Are Discouraged
For Faith and Salvation
When We Are Tempted
For Friends
For the Nation
When Someone Gets Married
Praise to Christ the Lord
Thanks for a Major Achievement
When We Need Guidance

and dozens more.

You can use these prayers in private times, in a group, for a special occasion, or in church. Or adapt them as you see fit.

ENDORSEMENT

"Mel writes with disarming honesty, and each prayer is like a cry of the heart. Here child-like simplicity meets sage-like wisdom, all of it spoken so intimately that living breath still seems to fill each word. Lifelines indeed."
—Mark Buchanan, author, pastor, professor
