George Mueller, whose wrote the prayer journals in this book, was a 19th century Christian who took God's command to look after orphans very seriously. During his lifetime, Mueller built and maintained orphanages in England that cared for thousands of children. A man of great faith, Mueller never once asked for a penny to support the work-yet somehow the necessary funds always came in-just in time.

Readers of this book, which is essentially a collection of Muller's journal entries with some corresponding background explaining them, will be moved by the intensity of his faith. The way he counted on God to provide, even in the direst of circumstances, is truly inspiring. This book, which spans six decades of Mueller's work, provides a window now only into Mueller's life and work, but to the consistency of his faith over time.
