In this book of personal devotions, Dr. Baillie inspires a deep searching of one's inner life through prayer by writing each prayer so that it seems to have been written specifically for the reader. In his understanding of the aspects of God's relation to man and man's relation to God through prayer, Dr. Baillie intermingles adoration, meditation, and intercession with a strong sense of the importance of social needs, as well as the needs of the individual.
