I had been praying to God to rid myself of hopeless feelings of doom and no hope

I bought this book at I opened to the pages where I found my answers. Pray for protection for those you love and to love yourself as you love others. For me I think of others more than myself, and I learned that ai had to love my self as much as I love others.

What should be on a healer?s bookshelf

If you are a healer or want to be healed, these books should help. You may also want to put two of these books in your doctor's hands: The Power of Divine: A Healer's Guide, and Hands of Light. I read many books on various forms of healing, and alternative medicine, and I have found wonderful insights and practical how-to in each of these books.The Healing Touch: A Guide to Healing Prayer for Yourself and Those You Love--- Norma Dearing, Francis MacNuttThe Power of Divine: A Healer's Guide - Tapping into the Miracle---Tiffany SnowHands of Light: Guide to Healing Through the Human Energy Field---Barbara Ann BrennanQuantum Touch: The Power to Heal---Richard Gordon Healing Light---Agnes Mary White Sanford

The Best To Learn How To Pray With Faith

If one wants to learn to pray with faith and belief, put what one learns into practice, and see prayers for the healing of family, friends, and themselves answered, this is the best book I have found. It is not metaphysical, not new age, but as any Jesus baptized Bible student will find, solidly based in Biblical teachings. Since putting its precepts into practice over 20 years ago, I have had many experiences of being healed and of seeing those I prayed for healed. I am getting ready to order a new copy. I lend mine out and it doesn't come back. I hope those copies have helped others as much as they have helped me. I highly recommend this book.by: Surrendered To God

Stimulating and Inspiring

Agnes Sanford has inspired many healing ministries including those of Francis MacNutt, Ruth Carter Stapleton and Jim Glennon.Her message is clear and scriptually sound. God can work through us if we only let Him. There are certain things we can learn which will help us to seek God's healing love and that is what Agnes Sanford describes in this stimulating book.

Down-to-Earth Approach -- "Healing 101"

Agnes Sanford's long-time work in the healing ministry makes this book an excellent resource, especially for those newly called to this area of God's work. It was first lent to me by a friend who was very active in the Order of St. Luke the Physician, a healing ministry of clergy, physicians, nurses and laity. It has long been required reading for new members of the Order. I recommend it highly to anyone who is interested in the healing arts as well as the ministry, as it covers a wide range of the subjects and experiences one encounters in this field with a practical down-to earth approach. The author's personal encounters with God's healing and her experience working with others in this ministry are set forth in a quiet, straightforward manner. The book is filled with examples of how God heals and why sometimes healing does not come when or in the way in which one would wish it. She deals not only with the divine healing part of the work, but also with the everyday problems of those who work in the whole spectrum of the healing arts. I recently bought a replacement copy, because mine has been lent out so much, that it's not around when I need it! I'm delighted to see that is still available 25 years later!

Practical, powerful suggestions for healing prayer!

"Healing Light" goes straight to the heart of God's healing power. Agnes Sanford was an anointed healer, and she recounts many incidents of God's healing throughout the book. I've read several other good books on the subject, but found hers to be full of fresh thoughts! Her rock solid faith will leave you newly inspired.
