Most of us have felt it: that unexplained prompting in our
hearts to stop and pray for a friend, a loved one, or even a
stranger. Sometimes we dismiss the feeling as a stray thought about
friends, families, or situations. Sometimes we are even awakened
from a deep sleep with an even deeper need to go to God in prayer.
Where do those urges come from? Are they truly from God? And do
those prayers have any effect on the one we're praying for?
In Called to Pray, Linda Evans Shepherd shares dozens of
inspiring true stories of people who have felt God's call to
pray--and the astonishing results of those impromptu prayers. For
those who wonder if prayer has any effect or doubt that God
communicates with us personally, this heart-stirring book will
amaze, inspire, and equip them to respond to those holy
promptings.
When you feel a nudge to pray, what will you
do?
Most of us have felt it at one time or another: that unexplained
prompting in our hearts to stop and pray for a friend, a loved one,
or even a stranger. Sometimes we are even awakened from a deep
sleep with an even deeper need to go to God in prayer. Where do
those urges come from? Are they truly from God? Or are they merely
stray thoughts? And if we respond in prayer, are others' lives
affected at all?

inspiring true stories of people who have heeded God's call to pray

danger, of needs being met and hearts being encouraged, you'll see
that God is involved in an active and dynamic relationship with
us--and that we can be part of his plan to bless others.
If you have ever wondered if prayer has any real effect or doubted
that God communicates with us personally, this heart-stirring book
will amaze, inspire, and equip you to respond to those holy
promptings.
