Life is full of stressful moments, the ups and the downs, the sudden grief and despair. There are also moments of great happiness, blessed moments for which we want to sing praise and thanks. But how do we express all that we feel, all that we fear, all that we need, and all that we are thankful for? It’s all in the Bible, of course, but sometimes we want to express our praise and ask for help on the spur of the moment. Or, we just don’t know where to start looking in the Bible. All we need, really, is a little pocket book full of suggested prayers to start our conversation with God.

Mina Petersen’s A Little Power Prayer Book For Your Daily Living is a compact book full of thirty prayers to help each of us through the rituals and struggles, the joys and sorrows of everyday living. Each prayer is referenced with a quote from the Bible and an illustration to inspire prayerful thoughts. The list of prayers includes: forgiveness, strength to stand up to our enemies, healing hands, faith, and much more. The prayers are purposeful and inspirational, helping to heal us spiritually as well as to guide us along our daily walk with Christ. There are a lot of prayer books and prayer resources available in book form as well as online. But Mina’s little book provides the faithful with all that is needed: the prayer, the source, and a beautiful, compelling image to inspire. A beautiful book in so many ways.

A Little Power Prayer Book For Your Daily Living is a collection of prayers written and compiled by Mina Petersen. Petersen has gathered together inspirational passages from Scriptures and Psalms that are targeted for daily use as prayers. They begin with the Morning Prayer and include prayers for divine assistance and guidance when confronted by enemies, prayers inviting the spirit of forgiveness to enter your soul, and prayers of gratitude and thankfulness. Many prayers include inspirational nature photography including water images, animals, and sunsets. There are also a number of holy images of Jesus Christ, angelic hosts, and one particularly moving image of the Crucifixion.

I was very impressed and moved by the prayers included in Mina Peterson's devotional collection, A Little Power Prayer Book For Your Daily Living. Each prayer is thought-provoking and unique. I loved the images Petersen includes in her collection and found they enhanced the prayers and made them resonate more fully, becoming more like a meditation than simply reciting a prayer. I especially appreciated the Morning Prayer as a motivational tool for beginning the day and the Forgiving Hearts Prayer for learning to get past the obstacles and petty grievances that so often get blown out of proportion. His Healing Hands is also a marvelous prayer to power up healing and health, and Be Strong is one of those prayers that will come in handy when confronted with what seems insurmountable odds. The accompanying image of a lion at sunset for Be Strong is evocative and powerful. A Little Power Prayer Book For Your Daily Living is highly recommended.

A Little Power Prayer Book For Your Daily Living by Mina Petersen is a small book of highly illustrated prayers, captivating body, mind, and spirit. Prayer is essential in this day and age. It is one of the most powerful force believers have. A lot of people don't understand the elements of prayer or the authority God placed within all believers. This book is a tool that will take fellow Christians to a place within the borders of prayers. The author has created and designed a book that is so potent, it evokes a reaction. Each illustration is appropriate to the prayer. Based on the listed prayer, I can tell the author has spend some time in prayer before. Even more so, it is evident the author has developed a relationship with God. It takes time to break down the wall of pride to seek God who sees all and knows all. Once an individual gets to that point, a certain confidence is reached.

By the creation of this book and the contents provided, anyone can discern the author has confidence in God through prayer and faithfulness. These prayers will take you to a place of assurance and you will transcend from doubt to faith. I can't speak highly enough about the wonderful illustrations provided. I found myself looking at them more and more. The fact that the author sought particular images to insert in the book makes me happy. The prayers are powerful without the images, but with the inserted pictures, it gives a doubled effect. Readers will have their eyes and minds operating in accord. If readers don't have faith, then after reading this book the seed of faith will be planted in them. A wonderful, powerful book that can be an effective witness to God.
