About this title

Synopsis

Using simple prayer ideas and meditations, the Poor Clares teach that success lies in complete trust in God 

Prayer and holiness is for everyone in every situation. We will never achieve true happiness as long as we continue to search for it outside the very source of love, which we know is God himself.

The Poor Clares look at ways prayer can incorporate into everyday life. They recognize that in today's busy world, many people neglect their souls and focus instead on the mind and body. In direct contrast to those fixated on spectacular results, appearances, control, and a tireless craving for success, the Poor Clares instead try to live life as Jesus teaches in the Bible. Using their simple prayer ideas and meditations, everyone can learn to speak to God in a direct way to bring Him to their everyday lives.
