Böcker av Leoma G Gilley

Having been challenged many years ago to learn how to pray for situations that were too big, too damaging, too vast for her to know how to pray, educator, missionary, and writer Leoma Gilley felt she needed help and that God's own words would be the best guide she could find. Gilley lived in a country that has undergone more than twenty years of a brutal civil war. She has friends who have lost loved ones in battle and from illness, who have been separated from their families for years, not knowing if their relatives were dead or alive. She's seen bad leaders and great leaders, witnessed mass migrations of people, and worked with refugees. As this second edition of Praying for Big Things is published, we are living through the COVID-19 pandemic and serious racial tensions. How do we bring these very real problems into our prayers?As Gilley considered this question, verses of Scripture seemed to jump out at her almost saying, "Pray me!" So, that is how the writing of this book began. It doesn't cover everything, but it is a beginning, and Gilley hopes it will help to enrich and deepen your prayer life as it has hers.
