The Altitude of Prayer

Descrição: In The Altitude of Prayer, Joel Goldsmith gives the reader a new and fresh understanding of prayer and how to practice it. Contrary to popular belief, Goldsmith says, prayer is not our speaking to God. Rather it is God speaking to us.

Our contact with this infinite Source within brings forth and maintains harmony, beauty, peace, wholeness and completeness, and we live by Grace.With an incomparable blend of spiritual vision and practical advice, Goldsmith explains how we can attain the heights of prayer and the joy of union with our Source.

As he affirms, Eventually the day comes when you can say, I am not living my own life. I am living, yes, but I am not striving or struggling: Christ is living my life. Then you are praying the prayer that enables you to be in the inner sanctuary within yourself and there tabernacle with God.Taking the reader through a typical day, Goldsmith shows how to live a life of prayer by begin
