Thank-you so much for sharing this!I wish I had come across it while my kids were very young!
Val,
I first came across this during a crisis time in my life. It made me feel better to have something specific to pray, and I've always loved praying Scripture. But now, it's relevant for my prayers for my grandchildren!
Thanks!
