FAQ: What is a prayer journal and how do you use it?
I use a prayer journal to record prayers, praise points, struggles and light bulb moments in my Christian walk. Since I started writing 2 years ago, I have been fascinated by the answered prayers - big and small - of which I wouldn’t have noticed if I hadn’t written them down.
When I attend my weekly community group I like to note other people’s prayers and comments into my journal. At the end of the year I collate the material, write it all down in a greeting card and present it to the people in my group. It’s a great way of helping others to see how God has worked in their life throughout the year.
I use Kikki-K’s ”Gratitude” Journal which is available online here: http://www.kikki-k.com/gratitude-journal
Here is how I do it:
How do you journal? I would love to hear your thoughts and comments.

O grant me wisdom from above,
To pray for peace and cling to love,
And teach me humbly to receive
The sun and rain of Your sovereignty.
Each strand of sorrow has a place
Within this tapestry of grace;
So through the trials I choose to say:
“Your perfect will in Your perfect way.

Hymn: The Perfect Wisdom of Our God - Keith & Kristyn Getty, Stuart Townend
The song is a gorgeous prayer for understanding God’s wisdom at work in all of creation, at the cross, and through every moment of life.

Who has felt the nails upon his hands?
Wearing all the guilt of sinful man?
God eternal humbled to the grave
Jesus Savior, risen now to reign!
Behold our God seated on his throne come let us adore him.
Behold our King nothing can compare come let us adore him.
Looking forward to the Gracepoint Burwood Church Camp this weekend!
