From beloved author Brother David Steindl-Rast comes this beautiful collection of original blessings meant to guide readers through each day with wisdom and spirit.
This gift book of personal blessings from Brother David, known for his pioneering work in interfaith dialogue, marks the first time a member of the Benedictine Order of Catholic monks has crafted a series of prayers for the general reader — whether people of faith, agnostics, or uncertain. Blessings are life-giving only as long as we pass them on, so this book is meant to be shared with friends, family, coworkers, strangers, and anyone in need of a few words of inspiration and guidance.
