We have been working on trying to be more mindful of finding time to pray as a family this year. When we have been doing this, we typically have been lighting a candle and taking time for each family member to be able to pray for things they are thankful for, and then we go around another time to pray about concerns. Although we have not been as good about doing this every night as I had hoped, it has been a really great experience for our family, and I think has been good for the kids to see that sometimes prayer is just saying outloud what your thoughts or concerns are.
But…this posting is actually about some things that I bought this weekend, which are already helping to encourage more times of spontaneous prayer for different family members.
This weekend, I was at the Hearts at Home Conference, and I was blessed to be able to meet the women who own a company called Doorposts. I picked up several of their products, and was not only impressed with their products, but also with the women who own the company!
My kids were instantly attracted to both the Family Prayer Candle and the Chosen Family Prayer Rocks!
And, this totally cool thing has happened since we put out the Chosen Family Prayer Rocks – I am noticing people just quietly going over to the bowl of rocks, finding a rock with someone’s name on it, and praying for them. Not only is that so great to see, but it’s also great to see the reaction of the person who is being prayed for, if they happen to notice!
What a great find this has been for our family, and I can’t wait for the opportunity to share some of the products from Doorposts with friends and family as gifts.
What a fabulous way to foster a prayerful heart in our families! After just a few short days of having these products, they already rank as a “works for me!”
(Please note — I was not compensated to write this review. I simply fell in love with these products and had to share the prayerful behaviors I have seen from my family because of these beautiful visual reminders.)
