The real value of this book is to explain HOW prayer works
& WHY it is important to communicate your needs(as YOU under-
stand them) to the All-knowing God,Who, by definition, has
full knowledge and will assist you, His child, to better
deal with situation(s). Originally written at the turn of

What a Wonderful Book
CTD is just what the doctor ordered if you find yourself swamped at work. The author directly addresses such problems such as the pile up on your desk and your shelves, procrastination, how to separate the urgent and the important from the simply important or urgent. I especially liked the traces of humor thrown in here and there. If you are part of the rat race, and you feel like the rats are ...
