Girls today are bombarded with negative messages.
As moms, we do everything we can to protect and encourage our daughters. Yet they still wrestle with self-image issues despite our best efforts.
My own precious daughter is eight. Even though she is homeschooled and surrounded by Christian peers, she experiences bullying. She’s struggles to fit in. She longs for friends who love and value her as a person, but they’re hard to find. This has impacted her self-esteem.
It breaks my heart to watch her wrestle with these things at such a young age, which is why I was thrilled to get my hands on Loved & Cherished: 100 Devotions for Girls by Lynn Cowell & Michelle Neitert. As I read the first devotion aloud to my daughter, she shared it was exactly how she felt at times. She loved finding page after page filled with words that deeply resonated with her sweet heart (and so did I)!
Lynn and Michelle demonstrate true understanding and empathy for the trials young girls face. In each devotion, your girl will find hope and encouragement specifically tailored to speak into her current struggles. Best of all, Loved & Cherished reveals the heart of God for girls in a beautifully tangible way.
Here are two of my favorite quotes!
This daily devotional has strengthened my relationship with my daughter and facilitated precious moments and conversations, while also equipping her with a deeper understanding of God’s love for her.
It is gorgeously done and makes the perfect gift for girls ages 8-15. Each devotion includes scripture, encouragement, a Living Cherished section (with space to write), and a Talking with God prayer section.

I want my daughter to know many things but among them would be that the world’s standards of beauty are not what she should strive for, her worth is in God, her value is more than what others think of her and the world’s standards for her will not bring her joy like what God intends for her.
Karen, I LOVE this! It is my heart too! Thank you for sharing.
I want my daughters to know how much they are loved by their Creator and that He has a plan and purpose for their lives and everything they are going through.
This looks like an amazing book that I would like my older daughters to read and have to be reminded that they are wonderful daughters of The King! Thank you for sharing with us!
It is a phenomenal devotional for all girls! I am sure they will love it!!!
I see my daughters struggle deeply, and then they want to resist the touch of God at the same time. At those times, I can have the gift of words like these I can pour into them, like warm butter over popcorn, soaking into the rough edges. Thank you for sharing this beautiful book!
I want my daughter to know God – to know God delights in her… To know that she has a purpose and she can do anything but to follow after His plans and purposes is how life becomes the best adventure possible!
Yes! To know God DELIGHTS in her! Love that so much! Definitely the best adventure possible! ❤️
No pen can tell of the deep love of God, I pray you will experience this firsthand, in your hearts!
I want my daughters to know the richness of Gods love and a life that is lived for Him…and to be spared the emptiness of life without Him
I want my daughter to know that she is just the way she is suppose to be. That she is suppose to be a unique individual so she loves herself and God does
Yes Kelsie! This is my heart for every child too!
