I am sharing other people’s prayer journaling stories.  Today I would like to introduce you to a couple more prayer journalers, Susan Nelson and Allison Marie. These ladies are active prayer journalers and active prayer journalers encourage others to start journaling.  That’s what this series is all about and I’m glad to have them join us today.

Prayer Journalers Encourage Others to Start

Hi, I’m Sue Nelson and I am passionate about helping Christian women live a Proverbs 31 life in today’s world. When I learned to view my husband and home as my ministry and how to manage my home using the Bible as my road map and years of study, trial and error as my compass, I was happier, more successful and my home was dramatically improved. God has laid it on my heart to serve women to grow in Christ, improve their marriages and manage their homes stress-free. I provide tools and resources for the Christian woman to grow in their faith, deepen their relationship with their husbands and manage their home. I’m married to the most wonderful and loved man in the world and am a mom to 4, grandmom to 4. My 3 dogs, 5 cats, and 20 something chickens round out our crew in North Central Missouri.

Just like with Kristin yesterday I asked Susan some questions about her prayer journaling journey.

When did you begin prayer journaling?

About three years ago.

How long have you been prayer journaling?

On and off for years but consistently for 3 years.

What is your favorite thing about prayer journaling?

Looking back and seeing how God has answered prayer.

What advice would you give to someone who wants to begin using a prayer journal but doesn’t know where to start?

Just write from your heart as you were writing to a friend. Pour it all out and let God do the rest.

Now we will hear from Allison Marie.

Allison Marie is also an Active Prayer Journaler

Hi there! I’m Allison Marie, an 18-year-old Christian blogger with a heart for other girls. I love exploring new towns, trying out new restaurants, hanging out with my friends and family, and studying the Bible. I am on a mission to glorify God with my lifestyle!

When did you begin prayer journaling?

I started using my prayer journal about 6 months ago.

How long have you been prayer journaling?

About 6 months ago, I bought a prayer Journal from the Daily Grace Co, and it was a game changer for me!

What is your favorite thing about prayer journaling?

I just love the intimacy I have with Jesus. I feel that the biggest difference between journaling my prayers and actually saying them is my focus. When I journal my prayers, I focus even more which leads to greater intimacy with my Savior. It is such a sweet time! I also love looking back and seeing how faithful God was with circumstances I was facing.

What advice would you give to someone who wants to begin using a prayer journal but doesn’t know where to start?

Just get started! You don’t have to have the perfect journal or even the perfect time. Show up and just write from your heart.

I am grateful that Susan and Allison Marie were willing to share their journeys with us.  If you have yet to begin prayer journaling I pray that you will begin doing so.  After all active prayer journalers encourage others to start.
