He wants you to talk with Him!Through a personal prayer concern, author Janet Benlien Reeves discovered that God has planted prompts to pray all over the place. Training herself to notice them and respond became a fun and meaningful exercise-one she's eager to share with you.In the pages of this book, you'll read Janet's story, learn the concept of Parachute Prayer, and find more than one hundred Parachute Prayers to try yourself as you begin to develop this simple habit. You'll also discover how "the practice of praying continually" can draw you closer to Your Savior, benefit your people and your world, and launch you into deeper, more focused prayer times.
