Edith Prendergast, R.S.C., issues a clarion call to both conversion and renewal, inviting readers to enter more deeply into the mind and heart of Christ and to live as his messengers in the Church and the world. In a world burdened by anxiety and fear, where human weakness and social sin tear at the fabric of every institution, Prendergast reminds her readers that each one has been given an amazing gift of faith and calls them to revitalize their commitment to others.
Prendergast's compelling spiritual vision is enriched by her skilled use of scripture, the saints and mystics, and contemporary writers and poets. She also draws from the little epiphanies of ordinary, everyday life - be they the words of a child or the insights of a homeless man. With a spirit of reverence and delight, each reflection harmonizes a host of voices that both inspire and energize her readers.

"This moving and poetic book is all about grace, another name for God's effective love at work in our lives. And no one is more credible to write it than Edith Prendergast. I say this because Edith herself has been such a means of grace not only to the Los Angeles Archdiocese but to the American Catholic community, especially through the famous Religious Education Congress that she has organized these many years. This book comes from the heart of a great woman with a deep Catholic faith. Sit back and treat yourself!"--Thomas H. Groome, Professor of Theology and Religious Education, Boston College
"Sr. Edith Prendergast touches our hearts and souls with her profound insights. What a valuable book to anchor us in God's presence!"--Anne Bryan Smollin, Author of Live, Laugh, and Be Blessed

Weaving poetry, scripture, and theology together with meaningful stories and lessons, Edith Prendergast enables us not only to be more deeply grateful for all we already have, but also opens us up to the vast possibilities still there for us in our relationship with God. Truly nourishing." --Robert J. Wicks, Author of Prayerfulness
