A Giveaway For Parent & Child!

September 19, 2012 by Traci

THIS GIVEAWAY IS NOW CLOSED>>>>>> THE WINNER IS VERONICA!  CONGRATS!!


Win a devotional for YOU and your CHILD!  Grace For The Moment is a tiny devotional book jam-packed with awesome truth and inspiration.  I love what it says on the very backside, “What makes us special is the signature of God on our lives.”

Grace For The Moment: 365 Devotions For Kids is a wonderful way to impart grace into the heart of your child.  It’s perfect for families to read together or for older readers to enjoy on their own!  What’s neat about this book is a “Growing in Grace” opportunity accompanies each devotion, offering practical and easy-to-do activities to help kids apply God’s grace in their own lives!  Love it.  Here’s one example from page 178:

Learn to pray “at all times” by creating times to pray.  For example, before you get out of bed, pray, “God, lead me today.”  At shower time, pray that He will wash away your sins.  In the car, pray, “God, show me the right way.”  At bedtime, thank Him for your day.

To win both of these books, please leave a comment telling me how you incorporate devotion time into your own life; for you and/or your child.

For extra entries, simply share this post.  Leave me a separate comment for each place you share it.  Random.org will choose a winner this Saturday, September 22nd!

    Hi Michelle! I’m a fellow Tommy Mommy and just getting started! I look forward to “working” with you! I’d love to win these since I didn’t have a chance to review them! We try to do devotions together as a family, but our little girl doesn’t sit still for long. So, we make sure to do it during meal time. I take time at night to spend time in God’s word. I don’t have a devotional that I use, but would love one to accompany!

    We always shoot to have a group devotion before we start homeschooling. In addition, I am teaching my kids to have individual devotions in the morning. My ideal is to have my devotions in the morning, but sometimes I will do it at nap time or at bed time.

    We read the Bible story books to our pre-schoolers at bedtime that were read to my husband by his parents. I would really love to win these books! 🙂 But who wouldn’t? :)I Thanks for the chance!

    My children are 3 and 1. We don’t really have “devotions” per se yet, but we do pray constantly and talk about Jesus and the Bible. My 3 year old just started Cubbies and we recite all of our verses daily.

    LOVE this giveaway!! I would incorporate the devotions into our school time. We always do prayer and read a small devotion or a couple of scriptures before school. And I would use the other in my own quiet time.

    When my children were little there didn’t seem to be enough resources as what is available today – I would like to use the devotional to bless a young mother and her children
    thank you,

    We read a devotion and have prayer after breakfast, have a family reading after dinner and reading, singing and prayer before Bed. I personally, take time to read and pray by myself.

    We have just started reading a young child’s devo book in the mornings at beakfast, right around the time Daddy reads his Bible too. It’s working pretty well, but takes a while to get a habit established!

    My son and I read devotions at night before bed. If I forget he reminds me and he wants to read 2 if we missed the night before! I need to learn from his dedication.

    I either have my daily devotion time when the kids are napping or after the kids go to bed. I’m a part of Community Bible Study so everyday I need to be in the Word so I can participate in our discussions. We have a small children’s devotional that we read at dinner time (Little Blessings). Would love to win both of these books!

    Hi! My daughter and I do devotions every morning before homeschool. Right now we are going through the Veggie Tales 365 Devos for Girls book. They are short devotions and include a prayer and scripture. She is 4 and I am teaching her to look up verses in her Bible as well. This is something she really looks forward to when we do devotions together.

  19. Veronica Sternberg says

    September 19, 2012 at 8:16 pm

    These both look great! I have my devotional time at the same time every day, so it’s part of my routine. I have two devotionals I use since they’re both pretty short.

    What a great Giveaway Traci! I come from a very non-religious family. I guess still to this day I’m not quite sure what my parents beliefs are. I have always known I didn’t want this for my children and have been working towards being a godly home. This would be a wonderful set of very much needed books! Thank you for the opportunity to win them.

    I sing “Jesus Loves Me” to my 2 year old every night while tucking him into bed. He isn’t old enough to understand it but I want his first impression of Jesus to be His love for him!

Blushing with your delicate, rosy hue, a gentle b Blushing with your delicate, rosy hue, 
a gentle breeze blows through fresh, new blooms.
Your time is fleeting, yet faithful,
a promise of beauty each spring.

Gifting petals that fall to the earth,
You are waiting for me to visit you.
Basking beneath warm shadows,
Deeply breathing in nature’s favorite perfume. 

A legacy of faithful promise,
Graceful, elegant, familiar and kind.
As the sun streams through branches,
Your reflection twinkles and twirls, 
Leaving your dance card upon my heart.

You whisper, come linger a little longer,
No need to be in such a rush.
Through storm clouds, torrential rain, 
and those picture perfect days,
You continue your steady climb toward the heavens.

Your limbs grow stronger, your roots deeper still.
Your humble beauty speaks for itself. 
No need to shout, nor beg for attention.
You hold the secrets of many who return year after year,
Who sit beneath your branches,
and find healing to bloom as well.

Don’t trade God’s perfect timing for impatient substitutes. 

The counterfeit isn’t anything compared to the real deal. 

Surrender brings peace, joy, and rest. 

So trust fully to His perfect plan for your life. 

No more rushing ahead. 
No more backseat driving. 
No more comparing.
No more striving. 

Lay down the endless coveting of an illusion of perfection. 

He’s everything you’re longing for, 
striving after, and so much more. 

Open your hands and release your grip. 
Now you’re ready to receive His good 
and precious blessings.
In a time with so many voices, opinions and commen In a time with so many voices, opinions and commentaries, we can get overwhelmed by the noise. 

What should we believe?
What should we say?
Who's side are we on?

You can never go wrong with running to the feet of Jesus.  Get alone with God today, open His Word, and hear the words that matter above all else.
Walk in God's law Keep God's testimonies Seek Hi Walk in God's law 
Keep God's testimonies 
Seek Him with your whole heart 
Steadfastly keep His statues
Keep His commandments diligently 
Fix your eyes on His ways 
Praise Him with an upright heart 
Guard His Word 
Hide His Word in your heart 
Be Teachable 
Declare His ways with your mouth 
Meditate on His precepts 
Delight in God's statues
Ask to have your eyes open 
Ask for understanding and wisdom 
Find your strength in His Word 
Choose the way of faithfulness 
Set His ways before you 
Turn your eyes from worthless things 
Trust in His Word above all else 
Find comfort in His promises 
Make God's ways your heart's song 
Be friends with those who fear God
Value God's Word far more than riches 
Remember His faithfulness that endures through all generations 
His words are sweeter than honey 
His Word is a lamp to your feet 
His Word is a light to your path 
His testimonies are your heritage 
His testimonies are the joy of your heart 
He is your hiding place and shield 
Do what is just and right 
Hate every false way 
Ask the Lord to be gracious to you
Ask His face to shine on you 
Learn to be saddened by sin 
Daily put His promises to the test 
Peace is given to those who love His law
This world will offer you information, but true kn This world will offer you information, but true knowledge comes from God and His Word.  What are we filing our minds and hearts with? What we meditate on, will consume us and change us.  Let's makes sure we are being filled with truth.  Read Proverbs 2 today.  Look at all we gain from seeking after the knowledge of His Word :

Receive 
Treasure 
Listen 
Be Attentive 
Incline Your Heart 
Call out for insight 
Raise your voice for understanding 
Seek & Search 

-> then you will understand the fear of the Lord and find knowledge of God, righteousness and justice.

He is my shield 
He gives me abundant wisdom 
He guards my path and watches over me 
Wisdom will come in my heart 
Knowledge will be pleasant to my soul 
Discretion will watch over me 
Understanding will guard me 
Keeps me walking on the paths of righteousness
