“Wrap You Up In Jesus Name” is the title of the prayer that we started years ago, and it goes like this: Wrap You Up in Jesus Name. Don’t let any evil come upon your heart, your soul, your body, your spirit, or your mind. Help us to be healthy and strong. Send angels to watch over each child (this is where we would speak their names). Plead the blood of Jesus over us all.
We started this prayer when we would go to school. As time went on, we added Mom, Dad, grandmothers, grandfathers, family, friends, the government, etc. Now when the girls text people, they usually say, “WYUIJN,” at the end of their text.
We read in the book of Genesis that God made a covenant with Noah. He promised never to destroy all flesh again with a worldwide flood. God put the rainbow in the clouds as a reminder that He would never flood the whole earth again because of the promise He made to Noah. In the current day and age, a lot of children don’t even know where the rainbow came from. A lot of adults don’t know what the rainbow represents. I felt I should write this book so the eyes of many children would be opened to the biblical truths about God’s rainbow. As parents, we need to fill our children with the Word of God—the only thing that can give our children life everlasting. What a beautiful gift God gave us when He provided us with the covenant of the rainbow! Every once in a while, the Lord will bless us with a little bit of heaven when He puts His rainbow in the clouds. Author: Ann Wilson Illustrator: Pam Day
