This small, quiet book speaks volumes. It calls upon us to combat the dark forces of evil and to live in the eternal light of God's love through prayer, which can comfort and heal us, and grant us peace and salvation.
To this end, Fr William Watson offers a practical guidebook that discusses prayer's content, place, routine, and ritual, emphasising the importance of regularity, simplicity, truthfulness, and avoidance of distraction. Fr Watson speaks of the importance of the reception of the Eucharist, with more practical tips to follow, the Sacrament of Reconciliation, and the Examen of Conscience prayer, as particular paths toward holiness. He includes a beautiful, well-chosen collection of prayers, reflections and inspirations that are short and long, well-known and lesser known, for the young and old.
