Find the prayer you need for everyday situations...While travelling in 2001, Mark Linden O’Meara stopped in a very old church to pray for comfort due to some challenging times. At a loss for words, Mark wished for a prayer that would speak to his needs at the time. At that moment, the idea of creating a prayer book was born. Over the next eight years, Mark collected prayers from all over the world and wrote many prayers himself.

Q & A with Mark Linden O'Meara
What brought about the creation of Powerful Prayers for Everyday Living?
In 2001 I was travelling to Ireland and stopped in a very old church to pray. I went into a side vestibule and found myself at a loss for words. I looked down and notice a sheet of paper with a prayer that provided the words I needed. The idea of creating a prayer book popped into my consciousness and from there the idea was born. When I went to leave all the candles, which I hadn’t notice on my way in were burning brightly, seemingly to encourage me.
How did you write or select the prayers?
The prayers more or less found me. In my travels and readings I came across many prayers, and compiled the collection. The prayers are ecumenical, coming from many faiths and many sources, and some of the prayers came to me in moments of inspiration.
What do you hope to give to people with this prayer book?
I want people to be able to be inspired with kindness, thoughtfulness and a sense that we are connected to something greater than ourselves. I believe that we are all singing basically the same song, written by many different writers and with a slightly different melody or lyrics. Through these words I hope people find images, emotions and thoughts of kindness and that we are all connected in our daily lives.
Never before has such an important collection
of prayers been presented in a single volume.
