This is a book of landmarks for the heart's journey. Written out of the author's own prayer and lived experience, and inspired by her practical explorations of the insights of St Ignatius Loyola, it opens up questions which concern us all.

How can we recognise God's ceaseless action in our lives and begin to discern his will? What does 'fallenness' mean for us today? How can we live true to ourselves and make decisions in freedom? How do we penetrate our deepst desires and become free of the lesser attachments that obstruct them?

Big questions - but as Maragret Silf shows, there are clues to be discovered in every moment and situation; at home, at work, in the garden, in the market, in the bath!
