Reminds us to pray and to trust God for everything in our lives. Prayer is one of the most important part of our lives.

Another great book for teen girls, Elizabeth George has a lovely and simple way of writing that is easy to follow and is always thought provoking. A definite 5 stars, I'd recommend it to any young woman out there.

I am not entirely sure where all these Elizabeth George books for girls that I'm finding in my book boxes actually came from. I know I didn't buy them, so someone must have gifted them to me and it's only now that I'm finally getting around to reading them to see if they're a good fit for my kids.

As I've said in previous reviews of George's books for girls, I love her heart. It's so clear that she cares deeply about the audience for these books and genuinely wants to help by offering guidance on their walk with Christ. But that caring doesn't always translate into a book that is going to "work".

I don't disagree with anything I saw in A Young Woman's Call to Prayer, but there are definitely better books on prayer out there, and I'd rather give those to my own girls, instead of something that feels cutesy and lightweight. I am, however, feeling inspired to go find those books, and for that, I'm very thankful to have grabbed this one today.

Sit tuviera que resumir este libro me quedo con este verso: ¨orando en todo tiempo con toda oración y súplica en el Espíritu, y velando en ello con toda perseverancia y súplica por todos los santos¨Efesios 6: 18. Ilustra maravillosamente todo lo que la autora quiere expresar.
Este libro es bueno para quien no tiene una vida de oración establecida, para quien tiene poco conocimiento sobre lo que dice la Biblia sobre la oración y para quien quiere dar los primeros pasos en crear el hábito de oración por si misma y por los demás.

Super recomendado.

Bien, no me encantaba hasta que conecte con el libro y fue mi mejor ayuda en ese momento

[Bookworm]

The thing I walk away with is the overwhelming kindness of the author and overwhelming love of God to us!
Biblically accurate, soothing for the soul!

Another awesome book by Elizabeth George! She really brings the reader into the Word of God, so it is God telling you the truth, not her. She does an excellent job of bringing the Bible and great heroes of the faith into her book as truths, illustrations, and inspirations. I have been encouraged to pray more, and have already seen results!

[Kiki]

I found it encouraging, and I got some stuff out of it. I did find it distracting and kind of annoying when Elizabeth George keep starting sentences saying "Dear one," ,"Beloved", "Young one," and a few others. It made me loose my focus on what I was reading. I might read this again, but I hope there is a better one out there. I rate this book 3.8 stars.

[IrenesBookReviews]

I read it and it does have some helpful information. Not one of her best books but you will be encouraged to pray more.

[Ella J.]

This devitional was great. A must read for any teenage girl who wants to improve her prayer life.

[Jess Heimbaugh]
