It’s here! It’s here! Today is release day for my newest picture book, Bedtime Blessings: God’s Great Love! The second in a series of three, this book explores the simple but powerful notion of speaking words of blessing over our little ones before they go to sleep.
Guess what? Courtesy of Paraclete Press, I have three copies to give away! Take a peek at how the book begins, admire some of the gorgeous illustrations by Natalie Merheb and be sure to enter the giveaway…
Beginning with the following words and inspired by Ephesians 3:18, God’s Great Love contains jungle-themed animals and reminds children that God’s love is wider, longer, higher, and deeper than they could ever know.
Little One, I pray for you, as you lie down to sleep,
That you will know God’s love for you, so high and wide and deep.
The book closes with four different blessings that can be personalized with the child’s name and invites parents, grandparents, caregivers or children’s ministry leaders to pray any of these blessings over the children in their care…

Samuel’s favorite jungle animal is Peregrine Falcon. Noah’s is a white tiger. Jack’s is an orange tiger. Finn’s is a sloth.
I love their names, Lane!
Congratulations on your new book Glenys!
Aww, thank you, Roger. So nice to see your comment.
Loved your first book in the series God’s Perfect Peace. Our favorite jungle animals would be the monkeys and the grey wolves
I’m so happy to hear that, Melody. Thanks for entering!
I love parrots.
Then you’ll love the ones in this book, Leela!
Sloths 🦥
That one is my favorite too!
Another gorgeous book. My favorite animal is a giraffe 🦒
Thank you, Becky! I am fascinated by their black tongues!
Oh, Glenys! This is BEAUTIFUL!! I would love a copy for my sweet baby girl! We just finished a study in our Mommy and Me group on praying the scriptures over our children. I think her favorite jungle animal will be a parrot since her auntie has 3!
Hi Colleen, thank you so much for your kind words and for entering. I think there is such power in praying scriptures and blessings over our little ones!
