The Plans I Have For You by best-selling author Amy Parker is a book that inspires readers of all ages to dream about their future. It's a story that's written to share with children that God has a plan and purpose for each and every one of us. I was recently provided with copies of both The Plans I Have For You Devotional and The Plans I Have For You Journal which were released this past December. I wanted these for my kids because I want them to know that they each have gifts and I want them to be able to focus on the positive.
About The Plans I Have For You Devotional:
The devotional is an illustrated 90-day devotional teaching and inspiring kids to dream about their future, to focus on faith, love, and joy, and recognize that God has a plan and purpose for each and every one of us. The devotional is designed for children ages 8-12 years.
The devotional is divided into six sections with titles like "There's Nothing You Can't Do!" and "Find That One Thing". Each includes bible verses and stories and how they are applicable to you. The book's color and illustrations make it bright and fun to look at for all ages.
About The Plans I Have For You Journal:
The journal prompts creative thinking and exploration of the talents and personalities that make us special, and then helps explore how God may use our unique traits to spread love and joy and make the world a better place. The journal is designed for ages 11-14 years.
The journal also includes bible verses, questions for reflection and lots of room for writing and doodling. I love that it asks questions to help your children think about the future. And I love that as a parent I have it as a resource for starting discussions with my children.
