The Waiting Shelf

For the prayers you carry and cannot resolve.

Two books for the prayer that will not resolve. The Ones You Carry is thirty days of praying for someone you love and cannot change; The Silence is thirty days for a prayer that was not answered. Both sit honestly with the waiting, and neither pretends to end it.

In this set

  1. Book 1

    The Ones You Carry

    30 days

    There is someone you carry — a child far from home, a loved one in trouble, a person you cannot fix. This book is for the one who prays and waits. Thirty days on loving without controlling the outcome: the father who watched the road, the widow who would not stop asking, Hannah pouring out her soul. Prayer here is faithfulness, not a lever.

  2. Book 2

    The Silence

    30 days

    Thirty questions, one a day, of the kind people ask at night and rarely out loud. I prayed and nothing happened. I feel nothing when I pray. It happened for them and not for me. Each day takes one question seriously — what the tradition has said about it, and what it has never claimed to know. Nothing here explains the silence away.
