Description
Enjoying your mother-daughter relationship on a whole new level. Do you feel out of the loop about what's going on in your daughter's life? The fact is lots of young girls are too uncomfortable or downright embarrassed to confide in Mom. But you've gone through many of the same things, so why is it so hard to talk? You're the most influential teacher your daughter will ever have, so become the person she can count on before all others. Susie Shellenberger and Kathy Gowler explain the importance of a spiritual mother-daughter covenant - a covenant made from you to your daughter and from your daughter to you, and from both of you to God.Focusing on prayer with and for one another, the mother-daughter covenant becomes an unbreakable bond between you as your relationship grows and prospers. The greatest gift you can give your daughter is to be a godly woman who reflects Christ in your relationship with her. Now she will know you mean it when you say, "I am here for you!" Bonus material includes several pages of starter ideas for creating your own unique mother-daughter journal.
