The prayers in this book - almost all written by young people - remind
us of what real prayer is: open and honest talking with God. The simple
and direct language and the clear purpose of the prayers are powerful
reminders that when we pray, God wants us to be real - real about
ourselves, our family and friends, our hopes, our fears, our faith in
him. Life is passionate, particularly when we're young. 'Prayers for
Teenagers' aims to help us recognize God in the midst of all our
experiences - whether joyful, distressing or challenging - and to build
a solid foundation of faith for the future. "Lord, are you really out
there? Please listen to me. I'm confused, worried. I don't know what or
who to believe. Do you hear me, understand and care for me? Please help
me, Lord. Thank you. Amen" Prayers for Teenagers
