I\u2019ve bought so many, but don\u2019t usually stick with them for more than a month. It\u2019s just such a hard discipline for me. (I am the same way with Bible reading plans haha). So, I hadn\u2019t been using a prayer journal for quite a while. But then I saw the movie War Room a couple of weeks ago and it inspired me to try it out again. I have high hopes for this time!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The one time that I stuck with a prayer journal for multiple months was back in 2017 when my husband and I were stationed in Japan and he was on his third deployment. I had created a prayer journal myself with a <a href=\"https:\/\/round-lake.dustinice.workers.dev:443\/https\/amzn.to\/3lcSCzr\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Leuchtturm 1917<\/a> notebook. I divided the journal into seven sections- one for each day of the week, and each day has a different topic to pray over. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>It\u2019s such a simple concept, so it is easy to do every day. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So, here is a breakdown on how I set up this new prayer journal based on the original one I did in 2017.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step one- Buy a journal and create dividers.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I bought the same <a href=\"https:\/\/round-lake.dustinice.workers.dev:443\/https\/amzn.to\/3lcSCzr\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Leuchtturm 1917<\/a> journal that I used originally because it is a lovely journal. It has a ton of pages and is really great quality. I love that the pages are numbered, which made it easy to divide into the seven sections. The journal also has a pocket in the back and an elastic band to keep it closed. I use the lined version, but it does also come in dotted, grid,  and blank pages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Next, I took some cheap<a href=\"https:\/\/round-lake.dustinice.workers.dev:443\/https\/amzn.to\/30tglmY\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\"> cold press watercolor paper<\/a> and painted some fun paintings on it. I cut the paintings in half and then to size with the journal- leaving a little extra to hang out the edge of the journal so that it created \u201ctabs\u201d of a sort.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>You could absolutely use scrapbook paper or cardstock instead of painting your own dividers!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-3 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/round-lake.dustinice.workers.dev:443\/https\/www.scribblinggrace.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/IMG_8122-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"DIY Prayer Journal.

Having a specific topic to pray over allows me the time to really dig deep into praying about it, and it also helps to hold me accountable to pray over things\/people I may forget to pray for otherwise. For example, finances are something I would often forget to turn over to God, so now I have a day dedicated to praying over that and won\u2019t forget to trust that to God. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Of course, praying these topics each day is not a rule, just a guide. I will always also pray over family and people and things that I want\/need to be praying over, no matter what day it is in my journal. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>These topics should be decided, prayerfully, by you to fit your current season of life. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/round-lake.dustinice.workers.dev:443\/https\/www.scribblinggrace.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/IMG_8113-1-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"DIY Prayer Journal.

My topics now are: me and my relationship with God, Connor and our marriage, Clark and parenting, family and friends, finances, Scribbling Grace and my sweet followers (aka. YOU), and the world and our country\u2019s leaders. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step three- Each day, write sections for gratitude, something good , scripture, and prayer<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Now, this gets even more personal. You could absolutely just do prayer each day.  I decided though, that within each topic section, each day, I will also have sections for gratitude, something good that happened that day, a scripture that is on my heart or that I want to pray over (I have been skipping this the last week in using the new journal, but I did it in my original versions and I do think it is important.), and finally the largest space for prayer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/round-lake.dustinice.workers.dev:443\/https\/www.scribblinggrace.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/IMG_8114-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"DIY Prayer Journal.

Maybe add a space each day for people in your life that need daily prayer. Or a space to write down your anxieties or fears to pass them to God. Do what is meaningful to you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can make this as structured as you like. You may be happier if you do label the dividers Sun-Sat. You may like to create boxes for the different sections on each day and a designated amount of space for them. Or, you may be like me and want to use this all just as a guideline.- I keep this really simple and just write out the sections, give them a quick underline, skip to the next line, and move on. So, some days my \u201cgratitude\u201d or \u201csomething good\u201d section will be larger and sometimes smaller depending on what is going on. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/round-lake.dustinice.workers.dev:443\/https\/www.scribblinggrace.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/IMG_8115-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"DIY Prayer Journal.
