Joyce, in her sound and matter of fact tone has reminded me again and again where my heart, mind and motives are and where they should be. I was reminded today as I had prayed about something important to me that by worrying about it basically cancelled my prayer. The power in my prayers is in part letting God work in my life. Stepping back and letting HIS will be done. I am reminded of something a friend used to say. He didn't bring you this far to drop you on your bum. Joyce reminds me of this here. Love it! Thanks Joyce!

Not as bad as I thought it would be. But by no means a good book. The theology kept getting progressively worse as I continued to read. I cannot recommend this book to anyone.

An interesting and thought provoking read. I did find some of the typos there irritating which was a shame.

July 18, 2008I picked this up at Borders Books and Music in Ohio. Joyce Meyer really get her point across when she discusses the subject of prayer. This is very good to read when your own prayers aren't answered or when you want to know more about prayer.
