SAINT TERESA OF AVILA PRAYER BOOK by VINITA WRIGHT

VINITA HAMPTON WRIGHT Teresa of Avila articulated for all of us the wondrous interior landscape of prayer. Journey with her through a week of prayer and meditation. Pray the psalms and confessions Teresa prayed. Use her words for meditation, and become acquainted with the wisdom of the saints who made such an impact on Teresa's spiritual growth and practice. Each day of the week includes morning and evening prayer, and there is a topic for every day, based on themes that emerge from Teresa's life and work."It is love alone that gives worth to all things." --Teresa of Avila Virginia Wright helps us to see and pray with St. Teresa stating, "Ultimately, what St. Teresa of Avila brings to us is confidence in God's great mercy toward us and God's willingness to meet us in our flawed humanity and dwell with us right here and now." I would recommend this book to you to understand St. Teresa of Avila better and deepen your prayer life. The author makes St. Teresa approachable, understandable and a prayer partner which is definitely a plus. I like that there are themes and structure provided for prayer and inspiration from St. Teresa of Avila. --Patricia McKenna, The Catholic Bookshelf Paperback 176 pages
