This beautiful little book offers a gift of peace to the yearning heart.
Powerful photomontage artworks, paired with words of peace from spiritual leaders and the scriptures of many faith traditions, create a book that radiates … dances … peace.
We all hunger for peace … peace in our lives, peace in our families, peace in our world. We search and pray for ways to bring quietness to ourselves and loving kindness to those around us. I believe that with God’s help we can learn to sweeten our hearts and become instruments of the peace we crave. I invite you to use the prayer and image couplets in this book as stepping stones on your journey toward personal peace … an inspiration in your daily life and a gentle guide to reach for when the path becomes confusing.
Being at peace does not mean living free from noise and trouble. It means being calm in your heart while confronting all the chaos life has to offer. The couplets in this book are crafted to reflect both that chaos and that peace. As you hold each prayer in your heart, step into its companion image. Explore its possibilities. Meditate on its challenges. Savor its hope.
” …a small gem of a book … the words and images reinforce each other, like two dancers in perfect step. This is a picture book for people of all ages, who are trying to discover peace in a world that often feels out of control.”–Richard Bough, Spiritual Director, Presence Journal
