<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"Poetic prayers address the spiritual well-being, physical needs, and character growth of a child from infancy to preteen years. They are accompanied by brief reflections and Scripture passages for meditation"--<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Our children are precious to us. So how precious it is that we can lift up these dear ones in prayer to God our Father, who has shown his love to us in his own Son--and who gives us his Holy Spirit to help us to pray according to his Word. These poetic prayers bring praises and petitions to the Lord who knows and loves our children perfectly. Covering their spiritual well-being, physical needs, and character growth, the prayers are accompanied by brief reflections from Kathleen as well as Scripture passages for meditation. This volume offers prayers for young children, from birth through the preteen years. Other books in the series provide prayers for a loved one's teenage, young adult, and adult years.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>Any praying parent has times when she simply doesn't know how to pray for her child, or times when she finds it difficult to pray at all. On top of this, we are often pulled in multiple directions to care for the emotional, physical, mental, and spiritual development of our children. We rush to sports practice, then a music recital, then dinner and bedtime. It can be tough to pause and intentionally pray for our children prayers that align with the concerns of God laid out in His Word. This is where Kathleen's prayers come alongside us in our weariness, anxiety, and ambitions. These prayers are worth sitting with, chewing on, and praying. I will be using and sharing this resource for many years to come.--Quina Aragon, author of Love Made: A Story of God's Overflowing, Creative Heart and Love Gave: A Story of God's Greatest Gift<br><br>I know of no greater gift that a parent can give to their child than the gift of prayer centered on the gospel. That's why I'm so excited about this project from Kathleen Nielson. Filled with faith, hope, and love, each prayer is accompanied by relevant Scripture and a focused exhortation to help any parent put into words what they long for in their hearts. Having prayed for and with our two daughters for the last two decades, my wife and I look forward to using it!--Julius J. Kim, PhD, President, The Gospel Coalition<br><br>If you, like the Hughes', have sometimes longed for words adequate to express our heart's prayers for our growing children -- and wished for more -- Kathleen Nielson's Prayers of a Parent: For Young Children is for you. The book features thirty-one select Bible texts, each accompanied by an expository note which is, then, paired with an exquisite prayer-poem. And because poetic expression (with its "rhythms, sounds, and meanings") naturally lodges in our minds and elevates our thoughts, especially when it is based on sacred scripture - it enlarges our vocabulary for prayer. Prayers of a Parent is a wonderful gift to both parent and child. Highly recommended!--Kent and Barbara Hughes<br><br>Kathleen Nielson understands the longings of our hearts for the spiritual flourishing of our children. She gives these longings beautiful and Bible-shaped expression. A treasure for every Christian parent!--Dane Ortlund - SERIES ENDORSEMENT<br>
