Worrying about our loved ones is the worst kind of worry in the world, especially when it's our children for whom we're concerned. From the moment they're born, our youngsters have an unrivaled place in our hearts, and we feel an unending burden for their welfare. We do our best to provide for them and to protect them. But sometimes, like the prodigal's father in Luke 15, all we can do is entrust them to the Lord, love them, and give them time to find their way. Nothing is more difficult. "Prayers and Promises for Worried Parents" offers hope for your prodigal and help for you. In more than a hundred brief readings, Robert J. Morgan offers doses of hope--encouragements from Scripture, effective prayers, true-life stories, promises from God's Word, timely quotes, and helpful hints for coping with yourself and your child in difficult times.
