St Paul said that we do not know how to pray, but the Spirit prays within us ( Roman 8:26). As you read this book, St Paul's direction on prayer will have greater meaning. This classic book written by Fr Laurence Freeman gives a gentle and concise understanding of the practice of Christian meditation and its relationship to prayer. The book can be read at one sitting, yet to carry the book with you for those moments of silence and waiting brings to you a more subtle understanding.
