I call upon you, for you will answer me, O God;
incline your ear to me; hear my word.
Psalm 17:6 ESV

Are you struggling to pray? I can relate.

When it feels like the world has turned upside down, it can be hard to pray. In fact, the enemy will do everything he can to keep us from praying. He knows if he prevents us from communicating with our Father, then the distance will eventually separate us.

Dividing us from the One who unconditionally loves us is crippling. It makes us vulnerable to believing the enemy’s lies. Lies that whisper: God doesn't hear our prayers. Has forgotten us. That somehow, He has lost control.

Once we begin believing these lies, we exchange hope for despair, peace for anxiety, and ultimately suffer defeat. But this doesn’t have to be our reality. We can intentionally set our hearts to prayer and see what God will do.

I’ve created this prayer journal resource to turn our gaze to Jesus. I hope it inspires you to:

Write honest and raw prayers to connect your heart to God’s.
Look for ways God shows up in your day-to-day life.
Record answered prayers as a reminder of God’s faithfulness.

You will also find two appendixes at the end:

Appendix A is prayers to borrow when you’re struggling to find words.
Appendix B encourages your heart to personalize Scripture promises. A few examples are given for you. Simply place your name in the blank space and claim the promise of God for yourself.

I pray this is the beginning of deeper and fuller hope in Jesus Christ!

Warmly and in Christ,
