Stormie did it again. She wrote another book helping us to think of ways to pray for our loved ones. I love her examples and lead-ins to pray for my grands that I may not have thought about. The scripture she attached to each prayer is beneficial in reminding us to speak the life giving words of God.
I've always loved her books that guide my prayers. When I became a grandma 5 months ago I had to get this one and I feel this is a book that all grandma's should pray through.
The prayers are all about subjects that are important for our grandkids, but a little flowery. Again the author seems to think that whatever specific thing we ask for will be granted in the way we want it. Obvi that doesn’t always happen.
I used this book as a jumpstart to my prayer time. I was sad to see it end but will start it once more to keep the practice of praying daily for my family.
