If you are short on time and can’t read a whole book right now, go to the end of each chapter and pray the verses for you and your children. Apart from God, you can do nothing, but with him, you can say, I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.

Fantastic book

I really liked this devotional and wish it covered even more topics but the author hit the big ones. The real life examples were relatable and the Scripture references on target. Nice job. I am going to explore a couple of the authors other goods too.

As I read through and worked through the wisdom and prayers contained in this book I couldn’t help but thank God for His mercy, goodness and wisdom. No one gets all their prayers answered the way they want when they want. As parents, we know that would be hurtful to our children if we had that kind of power and we know we must withhold and deny somethings for their safety and growth. God is the same with us because we are His children. An excellent book on prayer.
