Book # 18: Quaker Prayer

"When I am struggling to trust I find an old Quaker means of prayer especially helpful, because it is so concrete. Sitting with hands open in your lap, the prayer is simply, 'What you put in my hands, Lord, I will receive from you.' Then turn your palms over. 'Whatever you take out of my hands, Lord, I will let go.'"
- Paula Rinehart, Strong Women, Soft Hearts
