This is so good! I have journaled for 37 years, (since the age of 15), and have done it in different ways. Mostly through poetry. Writing is my outlet and I am able to be raw and real with God. Another favorite way I use my prayer journal is to fold the paper in half - lengthwise - and on one side I'd write out my prayer and the other side I'd add scriptures. Say I'm feeling anxious, I'd find the scriptures that'll encourage me to not be anxious or have fear. I hope that made sense.

Thank you so Much for sharing this! Little did you know, But this was an answer to a Thought I have been having the past few weeks. I currently am 15 (like u were when you started) and I have recently been feeling like I need to start journaling. I am really into poetry thpugh, so earlier today I was like "what if I started journaling poetry?" Then I thought that was stupid so I ignored it, but when I read this, I knew it was a sign from God saying "its not stupid, and I want you to do it! " So now ima start prayer/poem journaling, so that you so much for being a confirmation to a prayer ❤🙏 God bless you

Prayer journaling has CHANGED MY LIFE. For me, when I try to mentally pray, I often get sidetracked with other thoughts and then like 10 min later I’ll be like, “Oh wait! I was supposed to be praying.” But when I write it down, it keeps my thoughts more linear and focused…. And if I get distracted by my husband talking to me or my daughter needing me, I can look and see where I left off in my prayer and pick it right back up. I really like what you said about writing it down feeling as if you’ve laid down the weight of whatever it is on your heart before God. I felt that, but you expressed it so eloquently. When I verbally pray, I feel like I rush through it and sometimes feel disconnected. Don’t know if that makes any sense at all… but kind of like I’m leaving God a message on His voicemail rather than communing with Him. I still pray both mentally and verbally throughout the day, though, because I can’t constantly be in my prayer journal…. But there really is something so special about that intentional time spent with God in prayer. Another point I wanted to add to your being “real and raw” with God: I do the same. And this has also helped me grow as a person. There are prayers in my journal where I was venting to God about someone who hurt my feelings…. Only for Him to reveal to me in that moment in the most loving non-condemning way the uglies about myself…. Which led me in to asking for forgiveness and pursuing repentance… also a change of perspective about the situation and a burden lifted off my shoulders. I love how you didn’t emphasize prayer journaling a must-do for all because not all people function the same way… but it truly has enhanced my prayer life… and truly my life in general significantly! I’ve battled moments of thoughts of “you’re making your prayer journal an idol” but I know those are lies trying to prevent me from doing it because it has helped me grow in my relationship with God so much and that’s exactly what the devil doesn’t want! Love all your videos, Faith!!! Thank you for all the time and effort you put in to them. May God bless you and your family for your faithfulness!!!

I feel the same way. I easily get distracted when praying too. It often left me feeling like I was doing something wrong and that I’m bad for getting distracted. I know that that is a lie but I still felt distant from God when I would pray. I started praying journaling after watching one of Faith’s videos. I’ve been doing it for about a week but I have seen such a difference in my prayer life and have been even looking forward to prayer journaling. I’m so glad that prayer journaling has helped you too. I pray that you are doing well ❤ Have a blessed day ❤

@@daisyg8384 I think God knows us through and through and so I don’t think one way trumps another. The Bible says He knows before we even present it to Him. I don’t think prayer is so much for Him as it is for us. I mean, He DOES want to hear from us… but I think WE get more benefit out of praying because we draw closer to Him and we’re more mindful of Him. I do think sometimes there are benefits in speaking. Sometimes we can work things up in a tizzy in our own heads and if we say it out loud we realize it isnt as bad as our mind played it up to be. But if I’m being honest, writing it down has the same affect for me. I’ll realize I might be making a thing bigger than it actually is. This is just for me, I really don’t know. But I don’t think one way of communicating to God trumps another. As long as you are doing it. ☺️🥰

I have a prayer journal, and I’ve made maybe 3 entries in it this year. Sometimes I get discouraged or distracted or I’ll feel like He already knows everything, so why bother writing it or praying it? Or that He doesn’t care, which is NOT true but it’s my own insecurities and trauma. All the more reason I need to do it! I definitely love the idea of laying everything out there and the idea of watching the spiritual growth and ways in which the Lord answers prayers over time. I know I process better in writing than speaking so I have no reason not to do it. I just need to make it a priority and a habit and this video was a nudge towards that. So thank you! ❤

My cousin has a dream about me prayer journaling! She said that I was writing down a fear I was dealing with and it it just so happened that I WAS dealing with that! and she told me what my fear was and I was amazed! My God IS listening/watching me! Then my cousin dreamt it! We hadn’t even talked that week! Anyhow, I talk too much so I feel like writing as much as I talk will make my hand hurt. Lol. What I found helpful in prayer journals is listing each request in 1-2 sentences and then put a scripture next to it. One thing I was taught was to “pray the Word”. So I follow up each request with a scripture reference. I have different people as well as myself throughout my journaling notebook. When I pray I will reference my journal and then pray out loud. Again, I talk a lot! 😂 I decorate my journal but I don’t spend too much time with that because I want to actually pray. Loved this video!! Journaling helps so much in our prayer life!

For years, I thought of people that kept a prayer journal as ridiculous. Why should they write everything down in a book, when they can just talk to God? I thought of it as a waste of time. Well, as I got older (I’m 65), I realized that there are many different ways of talking to God, and prayer journaling is one of them. It may not be for everyone, and until I started watching your videos on the subject, I didn’t think it was for me. My prayer life sucks. I have a hard time concentrating on whatever I’m praying about - so much so, that I’ve started saying what a friend refers to as ‘popcorn prayers.’ I say a quick prayer for whatever the situation or request, then it’s literally gone from my mind. If I don’t say a prayer right when I think of it, I don’t remember it later. I think if I start writing it all down, that will definitely help me to concentrate more on what I’m saying/thinking, and my mind won’t wander as much. So, thank you so much, Faith, for the inspiration to start prayer journaling!

This video was so helpful as are all of your videos! I have always struggled with prayer, what to pray, how to pray, when to pray, etc. And... When I try to pray in my head, ADD kicks in and the next thing I know, what I'm praying in my head makes no sense. It's almost the same thing when I pray out loud. As much as I hate to write...ANYTHING...it feels like the only time my thoughts are coherent and flow, even when it's through stream of consciousness. This video has given me permission to approach prayer differently and I pray that in doing so, I grow stronger in my relationship with God. Thank you Faith! Keep doing the work that you're doing...you are a blessing to so many! 🙏🏾

I don't keep them because God is not accountable to me. He can answer my prayers as He sees fit. Not how I want him to. And most of my prayers, I wouldn't know how he answered them anyway. If it's a big thing, he has answered for me, and I want to keep a record of it. I put it in with my gratitude, so I keep going over it and be reminded.

I also feel the same about thinking prayers over and over and how sometimes it doesn't feel like they're really prayed, when if you write them down it feels more concrete. I think the reason is because some people, like us, are in our own heads a lot; thinking thoughts a lot of the time and spending every spare moment in our own heads, so that when we pray it really just seems like an extension of our own thoughts and not like something different, offered to God. I think that's why writing them down makes a difference because it sets them apart from the thousands of other thoughts we are thinking all the time, every day, and makes them more concrete. The way writing a letter to someone does. It makes it real to us and at the same time bigger than ourselves - since our own thoughts are so big already. It feels more substantial, like we've taken them from the world of imagination and made them exist. Perhaps other people, who are more do-ers and less thinkers, might not have this problem. Anyway, that's just my opinion because it happens to me all the time.

Thank you so much for this. I haven’t talked to God for a long time now. I’ve been very angry at Him for a lot of things that have happened/are happening in my life. I wanted to try to journal to figure my thoughts out and this video came up! Thank you!

One thing that holds me back from prayer journaling is knowing I might die and still have them and my family might read them, LOL! What do you do with these journals when you're done with them? Are you worried about that at all? I feel like I wouldn't be totally raw and honest in them if I knew in the back of my mind that my family might read them when I'm gone. I used to prayer journal a lot until I had kids and I think this is why. I found myself holding back anything I wouldn't want others to see. Thoughts?

I love the way Prayer journaling has helped you, and how real and honest this video was. I believe with all my heart that the Holy Spirit hears us and knows us better than we know ourselves. He is our guid, our comforter, our teacher, our filter, and our best friend. So when I pray i do it litterally as real and honest and open, and as if I am speaking directly not to just my savior, not just my Heavenly Father, but to the one person in all of creation that truely loves me for who I am unconditionally, my best friend, and I believe that is the truest form of prayer written, spoken, mental it doesn't matter, he knows all, sees all, and can not be lied to, nor does he lie. You can be all out and real and honet, because he all ready knows. And you can say what you truely mean instead of sugar coating it , because he loves you no matter what. All I ask of anyone in their journey to finding what kind of prayer works for them is to remember, he always hears you, just because you cant always discern his response doesn't mean you are ignored, or forgotten. And not getting the answer you are hoping for doesn't mean he doesn't care. as the song says "Some of God's greatest gifts, are unawsered prayers."

I have pretty much always prayer journaled in a way. Like from 14 to now I’m 30. Wow I said 30 as of Tuesday I will be. 😬 But I want to be educated a little bit more about it, and see what you do, and see if it’s different from me. And I love it because I can almost go through it days months years later and check off when my prayers are answered. Whether it’s a Yes or a No or not now from God. Thank you for making this. Because I have really started again as of March 23’ because of what is going on in this point of my life.

I just started a prayer journal. I've had Bible study journals, faith journals and such, but not one dedicated to prayer. I mostly pray in my head. I am not good at speaking aloud. I am a writer at heart. I think this will help me have a richer relationship with God. Writing it down will help me process it better. Thank you. I don't want to be like a Pharisee making pretty prayers in public. I crave fellowship.

This is a really cool video, I am about to start my 'prayer journalling' journey and wanted to look up a video to see what it is and how to do it. I appreciate the rawness and how you were hesitant on posting the video. I believe this is of God for fellow believers to gain a deeper relationship with our Heavenly Father. Thanks!

@HowtoFaithALife thank you for sharing your prayer journal tips with us 🙂 I had heard you talk about prayer journaling in a different video and was lead to start journaling as well. I didn’t even know that prayer journaling was a thing until then. I just started journaling for about a week so far and I have never enjoyed prayer as much as I do now ❤ I feel more joy, peace, and clarity when I am prayer journaling❤. Thank you so much for teaching me about prayer journaling🙂❤️I pray that y’all are doing well and that you’ll continue to be a light for God’s kingdom ❤

Faith, what are your thoughts on Morning Pages? I don't know exactly what to think...when you just mentioned "stream of consciousness" , it reminded me of hearing that in reference to them. I hear different opinions, some saying it's not a safe practice, but/and I trust what you have to say :) Thank you! 🤓 #Biblenerd

I am the same way. I am very hesitant to write anything down that I don’t want someone else to read one day. Though a friend and I years ago made agreement with each other that if something ever happens to one of us that the other one will go into our homes and remove and destroy any journals before someone else finds them but I still am very hesitant to write down certain things.
