There’s no fear quite like watching your tiny daughter struggle with sickness, her small body too fragile for the weight of what she’s facing. You count every breath, every cry, every flutter of her eyelashes, wishing you could trade places with her just to take the pain away.
As a parent, you’ve already prayed more in these past few days than you have in years, searching for any words that might reach heaven on her behalf. You’re exhausted, you’re scared, and you’re holding onto hope with hands that won’t stop shaking, even when you try to stay calm for her sake.
This collection of 120 prayers was written for you, and for her for every mother and father standing beside a hospital crib praying for their baby girl to get better. May these words give you something to hold onto when your own have run out, and may they remind you that her tiny life is held by hands far bigger than yours.
