Whatever you struggle with, you are not alone and you are already enough—just the way you are.

Ever since then, Lily has been desperately trying to keep things together, for herself and for her family. But now Alice is coming home from her treatment program and it is becoming harder for Lily to ignore all of the feelings she's been trying to outrun. Enter Micah, a new student at school with a past of his own. He was in treatment with Alice and seems determined to get Lily to process not only Alice's experience, but her own. Because Lily has secrets, too. Compulsions she can't seem to let go of and thoughts she can't drown out. When Lily and Micah embark on an art project for school involving finding poetry in unexpected places, she realizes that it's the words she's been swallowing that desperately want to break through.

Jesus taught us a very simple but powerful prayer that embodies many concerns of life. Simply Pray introduces the reader to a variety of prayers that can be adopted by each reader, inserting their own names and current realities. We are taught to always pray and not faint, and that prayer is not dependent upon our stature in life. In an attempt to meet the needs of a diverse community, Lee solicited prayer requests from social media, friends, and family. Under the heading of Thanksgiving, Petitionary, Intercessory, and Supplication, Lee prays simply. It is with the spirit of the living God and the love of God that these prayers are written.
