Today, Roberta talks to Sharon Jaynes about her new book Praying for Your Child from Head to Toe: A 30-Day Guide to Powerful and Effective Scripture-Based Prayers, available from David C. Cook publishers.
Prayer is a parent’s greatest superpower! This unique devotional for mothers leads you through sixteen areas of your child’s life from head (thoughts) to shoulders (burdens) to hands (gifts) to feet (the path ahead).
God has given parents the privilege of shaping not just a human being but an eternal soul. That responsibility can feel overwhelming, especially when it comes to prayer. How can we truly pray for our kids rather than fall into a spiral of worry?
In Praying for Your Child from Head to Toe, bestselling author Sharon Jaynes helps us use the words of Scripture to pray over our children with intention. This practical and encouraging guide offers:
- A unique head-to-toe pattern to help us make prayer for our kids a natural habit
- Thirty brief reflections with sixteen prayers each, taking you from prayers for your child’s mind, eyes, and ears, to their shoulders, gifts, and relationships
- Flexibility, whether you are looking for a month-long devotional or Scripture prayers to use again and again
As Sharon reminds us, prayer is not a means of gaining control over our children to make them the men and women we want them to be. Prayer is a means of relinquishing control and asking God to shape our children into the men and women that He wants them to be.
