May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit. Romans 15:13
I wish I'd had a book like The Plans I Made for You when my
daughters were young. Amy Parker's story reminds children they are each
different and have a special purpose in life. She reflects on the verse Jeremiah
29:11 to show how they can be God's hands and feet and an important person in
the kingdom.
As I raised my girls I encouraged them to be themselves and
find out what talents and interests fit them. I knew God had a plan for each of
them and hoped I could help guide them. This book is perfect for parents to
share God's intentions for their lives. Children will enjoy Vanessa
Brantley-Newton's vibrant illustrations. I love the page "I've left you
instructions-- right here in my book!" with words like love, grace and
patience floating around bright-faced children. On the zoo page she's created
adorable animals, each labeled appropriately. Children age three to seven years
old will enjoy this book.
BookLook Bloggers provided me a free copy of The Plans I
Have for You in exchange for a fair review.
