<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>This unique book inspires parents to maintain a sustained, daily prayer effort for their prodigal children, especially when they feel tired and discouraged.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>When you're the parent of a prodigal, you know you can never pray enough. But how do you persevere when you're tired and discouraged? <i>Prayers for Prodigals </i>offers encouragement for parents to "come boldly before the throne of grace" and intercede daily for their children through a series of inspirational prayers. The book also includes fourteen brief meditations, which are drawn from Scripture and the writer's and others' personal experiences with prodigal children, such as Ruth and Billy Graham and Monica, the mother of Augustine. This unique book inspires parents in a sustained, daily prayer effort for their prodigal children.<p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br>Other parents may not understand what you're up against with your prodigal son or daughter, but God understands. HE knows what it's like to have a world full of prodigals. And He waits for you to bring yours to Him through committed, passionate prayer. <p/> Parents can bless their child in no greater way than to pray for his or her salvation. Yet sometimes knowing what to pray can be difficult. <i>Prayers for Prodigals</i> will help you pray for your prodigal child while encouraging you and reminding you of the power of God to answer prayer. Ninety Scripture-based prayers cover emotional and practical challenges faced by parents of prodigals, including: <p/> - When You Feel Like a Failure as a Parent<br> - When You've Said Something You Regret<br> - Sitting in the Courtroom<br> - Praise for Small Victories<br> - How Long, O Lord<br> - He Is Yours, and So Am I <p/> Each week begins with a meditation drawn from the lives of prodigals in the past or the authors experience with his prodigal children, and concludes with inspiration from the life and promises of Jesus. <p> Use this book to partner with God, through prayer, to change your childs eternal future by bringing your son or daughter into a vital relationship with Jesus. Nothing in this world or the next could possibly matter more.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>As a father and grandfather, I have sometimes searched hard for words to express both gratitude and longing for our young ones.
