Book description
'We will never achieve true happiness if we continue to search for it
outside the very source of love, which we know is God himself.'
In Calm the Soul: A Book of Simple Wisdom and Prayer , The Poor Clares,
an enclosed order of nuns based in Nuns' Island, Galway , draw on the
fruit of their monastic lives and suggest simple practices to help
nourish our souls and find a sense of calm in today's world.
With practical advice in preparing for prayer, The Poor Clares look at
ways we can slowly build up the amount of time spent in prayer and
meditation in our daily lives, to achieve a sense of peace and
well-being. They combine reflections on familiar prayers, such as the
Our Father and Hail Mary, with meditations on Scripture, and prayers for
specific needs such as depression, self-esteem and sickness.
An inspiring book of simple spirituality which offers faith and hope to
anyone seeking solace in today's world.
