Summary: A Winner for Inspiration!
Comment: For over 5 years I have been blessed by M J Ryan's collections of Prayers and quotes of deeply thought-out wisdom! Many have often been neglected by other collections: Saint Ignatius' Prayer, ee cummings' "i thank you,God" Walter Rauschenbusch's theology of his deep prayers, Daphne Rose Kingma's many faces, Thomas Merton, May Sarton, and W B Yeats.

One of the most succintly worded themes of the whole book is by Simon Greenberg: "One does not need to fast for days, meditate for hours at a time to experience the sense of sublime mystery which constantly envelops us." Represented are unique riches from 7 Biblical quotes, The Buddha, Einstein, and Schweitzer!

Where else could one find the variety of Faiths, flavors, and/or sources of healing and life-changing examples of Prayer and Wisdom? Profoundly combined and edited! ...From one who collects
both small jewels of Poetry, Prayers and Wisdom! ...Retired Chaplain Fred W Hood

Summary: Misled
Comment: We have been looking for food blessings to extend our repertoire and keep us mindful of the food we are given at the evening meal. The sub-title of this book, "Daily Blessing for the Evening Meal," led us to believe we had found exactly what we needed. However, I challenge anyone to find more than three or four blessings in this little volume that would properly and sweetly bless the food we were about to eat. Some are absolutely inappropriate and unappetizing; others, so far afield we wondered what they were doing in this book. We were very disappointed.

Summary: Inspirations that go beyond mealtime blessings
Comment: This diverse collection of beautiful prayers and blessings contains themes which are relevant to whatever gathering I'm a part of. I have used the blessings to begin meetings, as part of a presentation, at family mealtime and for my personal inspriation. I have bought my own copy and have given two other copies as gifts. The language of each blessing speaks very powerfully.
