Your Heavenly Father longs to hear from you!
He longs to develop a relationship with you through prayer.
But as with all development, it is a process that takes time and support.
Written nearly three decades ago, the message is just as relevant as ever.
In Desperate for God, Nancie Carmichael compares the development of prayer to four stages of life: infancy, youth, midlife, and maturity. Each step along the way is defined by a different need for God-with each drawing you closer and deeper into His heart. As you grow, you will discover the joy of praying according to His will; the practical applications of a daily, consistent prayer life; and the peace and confidence of a close relationship with Him.
No matter where you are on your personal prayer journey, Nancie's wise and inspired words will provide gentle guidance, encouragement, and practical steps to take, today and for years to come.
We each come to Him with different cries of desperation, but how blessed we are when we know our need of Him. For that is the heart of prayer.
Nancie Carmichael has been involved in writing and publishing for many years, including as co-publisher at Virtue Magazine and Deep River Books. Nancie has written many books including Selah; Surviving One Bad Year; and Lord, Bless My Child (written with her husband, Bill). She graduated from George Fox Seminary with her MA in Spiritual Formation. Nancie lives with her family near Sisters, Oregon.
