To be ""more than we are"" is the ambition of everyone, declares the author. She then devotes this volume to an exposition of how this ambition is to be realized. The medium to be used is prayer, deeply conceived and rightly practiced. Accordingly, the book is devoted to an explanation of what true prayer is and how it may be most effective. There are chapters on the time and place for prayer, on meditation, forgiveness, intercession and adoration. This is an inspiring but withal an intensely practical volume. Seekers for the deeper spiritual life, of whatever faith, will find it helpful. Among the best of the recent devotional books, both as to content and style.
