Do you pray for your kids? I have to admit that I have great intentions of setting aside a time of prayer every day, just to specifically share with the Lord the things on my heart for my kids. Truly praying for your kids is something parents much choose to be intentional about. I've found this book - Prayers for Your Children: 90 Days of Heartfelt Prayers by James Banks - to be really helpful in forcing me to be more intentional in my prayers.
The book features 90 short chapters (about two pages each). The prayers all begin with a quote or Bible verse, and they are written in first person so that if you choose, you can read them as your prayer. The chapters are divided into sections by week, featuring headings such as Knowing, Growing, Walking, Loving, Protected, and more. It is really eye-opening to have a book that centers each day around areas of life that may otherwise be easily overlooked in prayer, like that they will gain the knowledge of what it really means to love, repent, and forgive.
The book is filled to overflowing with scripture references to enhance the reading experience. I love to curl up with my Bible and take my time to pray through each day's chapter. What a blessing to have tools such as this to help busy parents like myself!
