How do I start a Daily Prayer Journal?

Building a Prayer Journaling Habbit can help you connect with yourself and your faith!

A lot of people have questions about starting a prayer journal as it can seem like an intimidating task to start. You may have questions like what should I write? How should I format my prayers? What should I write about today? 

Writing consistently is the best way to build a prayer journal, but often coming up with interesting topics to write or pray about can be a challenge. Thats why for beginners we recommend responding to prayer topics. These are guided conversations based in scripture which allow you to reflect on your faith, but also guide you though your prayer. Open form prayers may be more powerful, but they can be intimidating to newcomers. Topics can be as simple as “How was your day today” or as complicated as “How do you view your faith”. These questions aim to help you focus inward on establish a close relationship with yourself and your faith. 

For more experienced journalers or people who are looking for a challenge try and brainstorm a prompt yourself that you want to reflect on. This will help you write more meaningful entries which will help you connect with yourself both in the moment and when you reflect back on your journal entries. Journal entries are all about exposing yourself to your own personal growth. Free form writing will allow you to express your most creative and unique self. The prayers you write in this journal can be about you, about a loved on, or about a friend. The goal is to establish a strong connecting with your faith and your emotions.
