From the Cradle to the Cross George H Brooks

In George's book, "From the Cradle to the Cross, A 365 Day Morning Prayer Devotional," one will find God speaking to the reader through Scripture and the reader speaking to God through personal prayer. The prayers are filled with Praising the Lord for who He is and what He has done and is doing even now in the servant's life. It includes prayer for Protection, as God is a Providential Care Giver. It provides prayers for Guidance of the Holy Spirit in our daily life and for the Power and Strength to live a life that would glorify God daily.

As I read George's book, I first read a Scripture passage, the Word of God. But when I read the prayer that followed, I soon realized that I was reading the words penned from a servant's heart to his Lord, Jesus Christ. Through our volunteer program at our jail, George was able to touch many inmates' lives with the love of Christ. But make no mistake, his book is meant for each of us, not just for those who are incarcerated. For we are all children of God in need of His love and grace. George's devotional is his personal testimony and his desire to touch others for Christ. May you be blessed as you read these daily prayers.
