Debra Williams pens new prayer journal, For the Lives of My Children

PALM CITY, Fla. - For many years, author Debra Williams has been keeping prayer journals intended to be a gift to her children. Looking back through them one day, she noticed how much her prayer life had changed through the years. What began as a list of wants soon became more about thanks and praise. To help parents and even their children learn more about the Scriptures and their importance, Williams has turned her journals into the new book, For the Lives of My Children, Prayer Journal (published by CrossBooks).

 

For the Lives of My Children is a 120-day prayer journey, guiding readers to pray God's Word over the lives of a loved one. Williams has included over 100 pieces of Scripture, along with 120 prayers to assist and encourage those who have a burden for someone - in particular, children and grandchildren.

 

Williams hopes her prayer journal will encourage readers to keep praying for loved ones in need, and that it will serve as a guideline for doing so.

 

"Prayer is such a great need in today's world and is sometimes the only thing we have in regard to a loved one," Williams says. "Oftentimes, prayer is much more needed than our words to that loved one.
