Have you ever stopped praying?People who have earnestly called out to God have lost everything they held dear. The only way you can dismiss that is to ignore it and push it deep down into your unconsciousness. But it doesn't lie there passively; it remains alive.and not in a good way. When life seems unfair and prayer doesn't seem to make a bit of difference, you may have quit. Most people who admit it, including the author, say they felt as if they were suffocating after a period without prayer. 'Sometimes I think God has called me to speak, write and teach about prayer so I won't give up on it altogether,' writes Harper. 'After more than 40 years of praying, I still don't understand it. .Prayer does not come easily for me. In the pages of this book, I will ask you to roll up your sleeves and confront your problems with prayer - and then keep praying. Sometimes you will feel like you are talking in the dark. But the fact is, sound travels in both darkness and light.' If you're frustrated in your prayer life and wonder whether prayer is worth the effort, this book is for you. Nothing daunts Harper in this wrangle with God. No doubt, experience or unholy feeling is out of bounds as he considers life and prayer's dark patches. No matter how lost or lonely you feel, he offers assurance. During days when you feel the number one problem with prayer is an unresponsive God, you'll have the strength to dig deeper and surrender to the mysterious sustenance God offers. As you read Harper's brutally honest stories and follow his advice on how to cultivate a prayer life, you'll discover the kind of prayer that makes you want to continue when everything in you wants to quit. Steve Harper is the dean of the Orlando, Florida campus of Asbury Theological Seminary.
