Do you pray for yourself? Does it feel odd to you to even think about praying for yourself? Do you feel selfish at the very idea of praying for yourself? Will Davis Jr, author of the Pray Big books, has brought us a book to teach us how to pray for ourselves with reckless abandon. After all who better, know our needs and how to pray for us? Praying with reckless abandon, made me at first think of wild passionate prayers, you know like the effectual ferverent prayer of a righteous man, kind of prayer. Pastor Davis is a great author, who has a writing style that flows easily and is easy to read. His "pinpoint prayers" alone can change a Christian's life when applied in their everyday life. A favorite for me, was the chapters he discussed Fueling the Fire, where he discussed learning the Bible, applying it to your life, fasting, spiritual breathing and worship. (Surprise a worship leader enjoyed that part best) Most definitely a book to keep and refer back to. Reflection questions at the end of the book drive home the message of the book.
