Counsel with the Lord in all thy doings, and he will direct thee for good; yea when thou liest down at night lie down unto the Lord, that he may watch over you in your sleep; and when thou risest in the morning let they heart be full of thanks unto God. –Alma 37:37

Praise for Heaven's Just A Prayer Away:
"Heaven’s Just a Prayer Away is a sweet, heartfelt book with author Diony George’s personal experiences intermixed with compelling stories about how prayer can shape our lives. I found myself either smiling or teary-eyed as I immersed myself in the stories, reminded that prayer is healing and sanctifying, prayer can bring inspiration, prayer can ease burdens, and prayer lets us feel the love of God for ourselves and those around us.

Here are three excerpts from Heaven's Just A Prayer Away
Excerpt #1
It was the middle of December, and it looked it. Snow was steadily
falling, in the Salt Lake Valley and had been for several days. When I went to
bed that night, snuggling close to my husband I was glad to be in a warm house.
Later on something woke me up. I glanced at the clock by my bed;
it was after three in the morning. I realized I hadn’t heard my
nineteen-year-old son, come home. I whispered to my husband, he hadn’t heard
him either. I was worried, work never kept him out this late. I reached for my
cell phone and sent him a text.
“Are you okay?”
