Lord, Bless My Child


Book Description

Newly revised and updated edition. Over 75,000 copies sold! For nearly two decades, Lord, Bless My Child has provided an enduring power of prayer for families. With a template to guide parents in praying for the character of God to be developed in the lives of their children, this book offers 52 prayer concepts that fall in line with God's plan for each child. Included are scriptures, prayers, age-old quotes, and discussion questions for family interaction. There is also a place to journal the prayers-and later, how God has answered. When the child leaves home, many parents give this journal to their child as a gift so they can read the prayer journal entries, and see how God answered their parent's prayers over the years. This is a perfect gift for pastors to use at baby dedications or at baptisms and to give the new expecting mother. Grandparents and parents will enjoy sharing this book as they teach their family to pray. Prayer may indeed be a parent's most important work. May He bless you as you pray for your child!
