Descriere magazin:
The Glenstal Book of Prayer is a rich, nourishing resource on the dark, mysterious, but exciting journey that is prayer. It draws on things both old and new: on the wisdom of the Bible, enshrined in Benedictine liturgy, on the experience of modern monks, and on the wisdom of the Christian Church throughout her long and varied history. Coming as it does from an Irish monastery, it reflects in a special way the Celtic tradition with its earthy, popular and devotional prayers. Beautifully bound and designed, it is both prayer and inspiration.The first section is a simplified Liturgy of the Hours to dedicate and bless those two great moments of the day that bear witness to Christ: morning, when we celebrate his rising as the light of the world, and evening, when we acclaim him as the unquenchable light that never sets. Through psalms, canticles, and other words of scripture, through invocations and concluding prayers, the day is hallowed and the presence of the risen Christ is gratefully remembered.In addition, elements have been included stemming from the ancient custom of consecrating special moments to the Lord in the bustle of the daily round.

They lead us gently across the bridge of sleep, from the glaring light of day to the dark cradle of the night and the world of dreams.This liturgical section includes a seasonal element so that the great festivals of the Christian year may be incorporated in our prayer, and a calendar of saints? days so that they can be commemorated. A selection of prayers for that purpose is also provided. These can be used in place of the prayer at the end of morning and evening prayer.The second section consists of familiar prayers, those tried and tested prayer texts stretching back through the centuries: the Lord\'s Prayer, the Apostles? Creed, the Stations of the Cross, the Rosary, and many others.The third section, ritual prayers, provides prayer forms for various needs and occasions as they ari
