Leila's book has been a true inspiration to me. It makes you focus on what's really important in life. The author gives us great examples on how we can have a closer walk with God by following the lead our pets give us in their everyday life. Pawz & Pray encourages us to put our worry and anxiety aside and take time to enjoy the things God has put right in front of us. This book has touched my heart in an indescribable way. I highly recommend it to anyone who loves animals and wants to have a closer connection to our heavenly Father. --Holly Cornwell, Editor 2007 - June 2014, The Royal Spaniels Magazine St. Francis of Assisi preached that it was the duty of mankind to protect and enjoy nature as both stewards of God's creation and as creatures themselves. In Pawz & Pray Leila Grandemange shares both her devotion to dogs and her love of God in a warm tapestry of observations, narratives, quotations and biblical extracts. She illustrates so clearly how sharing love and caring for animals can be so richly rewarding and honoring to God. Beautifully illustrated, this is indeed a trove of profound inspiration. --Dennis Homes Pawz & Pray is delightful reading that moves us and leads us along good paths to walk. Through Leila's conversational narrative she opens her life and shows us how God has beenchanging her and enriching her life to his glory. She takes us in life-giving directions that we should all want to go. It's as if she has invited us for tea on the porch or for a walk, always with at least one dog on leash, to hear meaningful stories and valuable insights about God's abounding love for us. But she doesn't just point the direction ahead and then leave us to figure out the journey for ourselves. Rather, Leila helps us know how to stay connected to God in our everyday lives with all our responsibilities, family, friends, and of course, our dogs . We could hardly hope for a better human companion. Unleash the insights on these pages into your life. --Scott Stewart, Editor, Devotions and The Quiet Hour Pawz & Pray beautifully illustrates the healing power of being in communion with animals, weaving together the spiritual and therapeutic lessons our pets bestow upon us. It is in relationship that we collectively participate in one another's salvation (or destruction), and these insights are vividly depicted in her stories about devotion, forgiveness, patience and the cultivation of empathy. I am grateful that Leila has shared her experience and wisdom in this book, her prayer that we can all learn from our animal friends to be kinder to ourselves and each other. Now more than ever. -- Malissa Feruzzi Shriver Pawz & Pray is like the sweetest of warm hugs from your favorite family member. It leaves you feeling so much better for having read it. The author seamlessly and beautifully weaves relationships with our dogs with our relationships with God. It's a book to cherish, and share with those you love. -- Sally Henderson
