This review is from: The Power of a Praying® Parent Book of Prayers (Power of a Praying Book of Prayers) (Paperback)

In The Power of a praying Parent, Stormie Omartian writes, "I don't know how to be the perfect parent for my children," I said to God in desperation one day. "I need You to help me raise them."
"God responded by impressing on my heart the following words: 'If you are not covering your children in prayer every day, you are leaving their lives to chance.'"
"What a frightening thought!"
"Then teach me how to pray for my children the way You would have me to, Lord."
"I learned I didn't have to be a perfect parent; I just had to be a praying parent. That was something I COULD do."
In her book, Mrs. Omartian, shares specific prayers that God taught her to pray for every area of her childrens' lives. By doing so, she encourages other parents to do what they CAN do for their children--PRAY! A Bible verse and space for prayer notes are included with each prayer so that the reader can include specific prayers for their children. I found this helpful not only for me to pray for my adult children but for my grandchildren as well.

5.0 out of 5 stars Priceless, January 4, 2007

This review is from: The Power of a Praying® Parent Book of Prayers (Omartian, Stormie) (Paperback)

The book has prayers for your teens and opposite each prayer you have a place to write your prayer or a journal entry. I can see a priceless opportunity for this book. In later years your grown up teen can read your prayer or comment and possibly use it for their teen as well as the books prayers. The prayers are well written and connects real world issues to spiritual warfare.

I ordered this book (2 copies) as baby shower gifts for friends. It's VERY small. I have the full-sized version of this book and it's awesome. I thought I was ordering the paperback version of the one I have. Not so. It's condensed and fits in the palm of your hand. I suppose it's good for having at your bedside or putting in your purse to have with you at all times. But next time, guess I should read the description better to check the dimensions before I buy!
