People have really cute prayer journals.
People have really organized prayer journals.
I became overwhelmed and just started writing sloppy bullet points in an old notepad.
Don't the little birds look like they're chirping songs of praise? |
It's not totally unorganized in there. On the inside cover I have some permanent prayers listed that I want to say every day. On the other pages I write the current date, and throughout the day I jot down prayers. Then, I highlight (or, I'm going to- I only have one so far) answered prayers. At the end of the day, I pray! It's nothing fancy, but I'm excited about it. Already, it's made me much more aware of how I communicate with God. For instance, it serves as a reminder to offer up more praise, and ask for mercy when I screw up. I also find myself shooting up more mini-prayers throughout the day.
Do you have a prayer journal? How do you organize it? I'm not even a week into this yet, so I still need tips! Unless you're going to tell me to find a notebook without scribbles from a two year old in it. It's too late for that.

i hope my kid's picture-worthy rash was one of the answered ones! we appreciated it!
I haven't kept a prayer journal since I was a little tike...maybe it's time again! As for your recycled, scribbled journal- I think it's thrifty and lovely.
My Anonymous friends, trust me when I say you are in my prayers! Happily, I think God hears prayers even when they're scribbled in my awful handwriting into a half-used up notebook. :)
