I chose to gift Max Lucado’s Pocket Prayers for Friends to
my amazing cousin, Heather for her upcoming birthday. Heather and I grew up together as children and she
lived next door to me and we went to church together. We would constantly hang
out and play games, listen to music, jump on the trampoline, play in our tree
houses, sing, and have adventures. When she got married, we have spent less
time together and life has gotten busy for the both of us. This book will
greatly benefit her because she has stopped attending church when she got
married. I believe her love of God is still there somewhere but she has just
forgotten. One of my favorite days was day 11. This day discussed verse Psalm
55:14 and it stated, “We took sweet counsel together, and walked to the house
of God in the throng”. This day’s prayer was about worshiping God in church and
desperately longing to learn more about Him and His ways. It also talked about
having great Christian’s friends and this is something I’m praying and hoping
for her and her husband.
“I received a review copy of Pocket Prayers Series from Litfuse for
this review.”
About the book:
Bestselling author Max Lucado has teamed up
with six authors to write the Pocket Prayers series for those in need of peace,
renewal, rest, faith, hope, joy, direction, serenity, and courage.
Short, simple prayers are very effective, which is why each
book in the series contains forty guided prayers and complementary
scriptures for any situation, including for:
—Moms (written with daughter Andrea Lucado)
—Grads (written with daughter Andrea Lucado)
—Dads (written with Mark Mynheir)
—Military Life (written with Mark Mynheir)
—Teachers (written with blogger Jennifer Hale)
—Friends (written with Betsy St. Amant)
Key dates to keep in mind
(these little books would make great gifts):
- Mother's Day---May 8
- Memorial Day---May 30
- Father's Day---June 19
- Teachers---first week of May is National Teacher Appreciation Week, first Tuesday May 3 is NTA day
