Description: ON PRAYER is the the sixth and most recent volume translated into English of the series of St. Paisios' counsels to his spiritual children. For Elder Paisios, prayer is the immeasurable potential which God has given us in order to communicate with Him, and ask for His help. The Elder actually felt pain when he observed people suffering as they struggled “with their limited human capabilities,” when they could have asked for help from God, Who “would have sent not simply divine help, but a whole variety of divine assistance; and then, of course, His help would not be called simply divine help, but a miracle of God.” It was why he had insisted that we understand prayer to be a necessity and honestly sought to help those who had not learned to pray “to make a start in order to get their heart working on prayer.” He also strengthened those who had acquired the good habit of praying to pray with even more philotimo and great fervour. To everyone, however, he emphasised repentance and humility as the main prerequisites for communication with God.These pages make the wisdom of this Orthodox Elder come alive to readers who can practically apply them to day to day life.SOFT COVER 23cm X 15cm, 323 pages.
