Meeting the One Who Loves You: Saint Teresa of Ávila's Way of Prayer (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781639662883)

Saint Teresa of Ávila taught that the sacred humanity of Jesus is our way to him. She believed in the power of prayer, even the simple inner silence of contemplative prayer -- spending time with Jesus and loving him.

Saint Teresa said she never knew what it was to pray with satisfaction until the Lord himself taught her what she named "The Prayer of Recollection." Meeting the One Who Loves You teaches this method of prayer step by step, along with its underpinning concepts, in a friendly, personal way.

Wherever you are in life and in your walk with God, fear not. Only good can come of learning this prayer and making it an important part of your daily life. Saint Teresa knew the transforming love of God in prayer, and consequently, she lived a life of extraordinary richness. If you have a desire to pray more deeply, to grow exponentially in love, and to be connected to God more profoundly, then this prayer is perfect for you.
