Prayers of a Parent for Adult Children

Adult children face many struggles, both earthly and spiritual. Even fully grown, they need support as they forge a life of their own. But how can we help them on their journey as they become independent from us? Bring your love for them to the Lord in prayer. God, who knows and loves your child perfectly, will satisfy their every need.
Let Kathleen’s words guide your devotions as her prayer collection tackles the challenges of marriage, parenthood, careers, aging, and more. Each of the thirty-one prayers included is accompanied by Scripture passages and short reflections for meditation.
This volume offers prayers for adult children. Other books in the series provide prayers for children, teens, and young adults. What a blessing it is to thank God for our precious children thorough all stages of life!
