RUNNING AWAY
Father, I received word today that my grandchild wants to run away from home. How often I have wanted to do the same! If only I could pack a knapsack with a sandwich, a jar of lemonade, my $.15 savings, and my favorite stick and leave the pressing needs I face behind. Why is my grandchild running away, Father?...

Isn’t it amazing how the tiniest of hands can hold your heart? Author Melanie Wayne teaches you in A Grandparent's Prayer Journal to stand in the gap for those little souls whom you love. The topics of these scripture-based prayers range from character building to dream building. There are spaces in this journal for birthdates, special occasion dates, notes for forgetful seniors, your grandchild’s photo, and a section to enter special prayer requests from parents and grandchildren. The print is large enough to facilitate easy reading. If you were a praying parent, this carries on the legacy of prayer in your family. If you weren’t, it is time to change the legacy, beginning with A Grandparent's Prayer Journal.

FOREWORD
Written by Fern Nichols, Founder and president of Moms In Touch International. A sought after speaker at conferences and retreats, she has also been a repeated guest on Focus on the Family and other radio programs.

“Grandparents play an active vital role in the lives of their grandchildren. Whether we are raising our grandchildren or opening our home to their family; whether they live next door, across the country or around the world, we can have a mighty influential life-changing touch through our prayers. As we are all concerned and shudder at the challenges and moral decline that face this generation of children, we must be about unceasingly giving that prayer “touch” like never before. Our grandchildren desperately need our prayers ~ for such a time as this!

That is why I am so excited about this book! It is a book that guides us into Holy Spirit directed prayers, helping us store up blessings for the next generations. Melanie wonderfully captures the heart of a grandparent. As I read through these prayers, it was as if she knew my heart. Her grandmother praying heart deeply touched my grandmother praying heart. The prayers she prayed were the same desires, hopes, and dreams I have for my grandchildren. Many times tears would well up in my eyes as I said, “Yes, Lord, yes. That is my prayer as well.”

I love how each prayer focuses on a particular characteristic or topic that connects with the day-to-day experiences of our grandchildren. The prayers are Scripture based, so we can know with confidence that we are praying according to God’s will and purposes. Truly, there is no greater way to protect our grandchildren from the daily assaults of the world, the flesh and the Devil, than through praying God’s Word over their lives. You will experience the peace that is promised in Philippines 4:6 as you exchange your fretfulness with prayer.”
