Böcker av Sally Breeze Green

I like that Sally has entitled her book In Quest of Prayer-extraordinary, while at the same time ordinary; every day and practical. Sally has been a driving force keeping prayer prominent in our church, teaching workshops, leading retreats, and helping create a prayer closet. I've been blessed to have her as a prayer partner for almost twenty years now! I am confident that you will be blessed to join "the Quest" and experience God's presence!Steve Schorr, Senior pastor, First Presbyterian Church, Midland, TexasIn Quest of Prayer, will provide a path for you to get in touch with our holy God. Within it, readers will find: Twelve lessons with assignments that can be used in small group study.A devotional guide that will teach the reader many ways and forms of prayer.Many appendices that can be used in conjunction with private study or in retreat scenarios.

In the beginning the Word already existed. The Word was with God, and the Word was God. He existed in the beginning with God. God created everything through him, and nothing was created except through him. The Word gave life to everything that was created, and his life brought light to everyone. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness can never extinguish it. (John 1:1-5 New Living Testament)All things bright and beautiful, All creatures great and small, All things wise and wonderful: The Lord God made them all. (Words: Cecil F. Alexander, pub.1848; Music: "Bright and Beautiful" by William H. Monk, 1887. Public Domain)

Stories of my youth taught me that God can speak to our hearts in dreams, just like He did in Scripture. I also learned that this usually happens at night when we are asleep! I love it when God awakens me and says, "Get up and write this down!" That happened in my earlier book, Lo & Behold: A Christmas Story.Georgie! is another story from my dream life. It is a mixture of childhood memories which take shape in the characters and events in the story-fishing with my father in the trout streams of Colorado; my husband's fishing adventures with his father as they just sat on the bank, waiting for a nibble; my brother's finding our black-and-white sheepdog at the Safeway store in Denver; a poem of a friend named "Mike."These memories woven together with Bible verses and values I learned as a girl gave way to this story of God's grace in my life. I hope this little story will encourage those who read it to follow their dreams and know that God does answer and give them the desires of their hearts, especially when it is to help someone else!I dedicate this book to our great-grandchildren, Addy and Connor!

Lo and Behold came into being as the result of being awakened during the night and feeling nudged by the Holy Spirit to write down what came to me. The story simply wrote itself as it flowed out of my pen, and I was amazed at the result!The name came from my father-in-law, telling me with tongue in cheek Lo and Behold were the two most famous angels in Scripture since it was written many times: "Lo, the angel of the Lord" and "Behold, the angel of the Lord."I dedicate this book in his memory and in honor of my grandchildren.
