Invocations: Calling Forth The Light That Heals [Paperback]

Jacob Glass (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: September 18, 2000

In "Invocations" Jacob Glass reminds us of a God who cares and of a Universe that is ultimately loving. Through prayers, exercises and essays which cover a variety of topics and which affirm the goodness and beneficence of Divine Spirit, he takes us on a journey of hope and inspiration for daily living.There is a quiet peaceful center of love, wisdom and strength that lives in the human heart and soul. Yet often we disconnect from deeper values and meaning. We become so busy we tend to forget what our purpose is and that we have Spiritual Aid. Living a life of faith is difficult if not impossible without a daily connection to our inner-selves.As our lives become busier and busier it is imperative that we take time to regularly focus on what is most important so that we may more powerfully participate in our own lives. Prayer is the ancient and sacred practice of talking with God, communing with the Divine. As we consciously seek God, God is revealed to us. Undreamed of possibilities emerge from these dialogues.

Spirituality made practical - that's what this powerful little handbook is all about. The prayers are insightful and inspirational while the text remain humanly poignant. If you thought spirituality had nothing to do with your day to day life, think again. This book elegantly brings the two paths together in order to make ones life better, more peaceful, happier - all the ingredients necessary to entice the things that we desire into our lives. A must have book. You will use it every day.

5.0 out of 5 stars Peaceful moments in a difficult day, November 21, 2000

Jeannie Parkman (Orange, California, USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Invocations: Calling Forth The Light That Heals (Paperback)

I have always used prayer to center me and bring me closer to God, however, using Invocations as my guide, I find myself much more peacful. I am caring for many people, including a terminally ill mother, a demented 96 year old grandmother, a 4 1/2 year old free spirit, and a husband and home business...I carry my new favorite book everywhere, carefully marked in my favorite places for quick help. I have read "everything" and nothing has helped me find peace so quickly and completely, in the moments I need it most.

This review is from: Invocations: Calling Forth The Light That Heals (Paperback)

The power of this book is in its simplicity. Human, funny, straight and to the point-- this book heals and inspires without preaching or using a spiritual Band-aid of any kind. Mr. Glass has written a book that inspires, challenges, and ultimately proves that love and faith is the greatest healer of all. An absolute must read!
