15 Awesome Gratitude Journaling Prompts & Ideas All Christian Women Should Know!

 If you’ve ever uttered any of the following statements then you miiight wanna try using gratitude journaling prompts:

“Ugh, I don’t want to get up for work”

“I don’t feel like working out…I’m tired”

“Do I have to go to church” (or fill in the blank with the location of your choice)

“I don’t make enough money”

Oh yes, I’ve said some variation of all of these lovely complaints and I realized that I had to check myself and start thinking in a new way.

That’s where gratitude journaling prompts come in. The easiest thing in the world to do is complain and be negative. It couldn’t come more naturally to most people.

But it takes extra effort to be grateful and look for ways to have a more positive attitude. I strongly believe, though, that using gratitude journaling prompts can be a powerful tool that will make positivity and thankfulness just a normal part of your routine…eventually.

No, Rome wasn’t built overnight nor will your new attitude. But give it time. The more you use these gratitude journal ideas I’m going to share with you, the faster your perspective in life will change!Continue reading

8 Ways We Benefit From Studying The Word Of God

8 Amazing Benefit Of Bible Study 

Have you ever felt like studying the Bible was just a task to be endured and checked off your to-do list? There are some Christians who have never felt this I’m sure but I’m sad to say that I am not one of them.

Setting aside time to study the Bible can frankly seem like an interruption to our busy day. Because what we are doing instead (you know scrolling through Facebook or Instagram) is so much more important. I hope you are familiar with sarcasm.

If not, then you might not have realized that I do not believe catching up on Facebook “news” is more important than reading the word of God. It’s just that it’s easy to get caught up in everyday life and seemingly not have any time to spend with the Lord.

If you’ve ever felt this way, then I sit back as I share with you 10 reasons why studying the Bible is awesome and vital to our relationship with the Lord!

Intentional Journaling Prompts To Help You Find Meaning And Purpose In Your Life!

So ya’ll, I’m really excited about these intentional journaling prompts today! Why? Because life without a purpose is like a drifting wind without direction and it’s so easy to drift when you don’t have intentional goals that you’ve set.

And I don’t want that for you! It’s like one minute you feel like you have it all together and the next minute, you don’t even know what your next move ought to be.

Once you start to feel this way, you’re likely to compare yourself to anyone who seems to have their life planned out.

You’ll ask yourself questions like:

• ‘Why me?’
• ‘Why is my life like this?’
• ‘Why can’t I commit to anything?’
• ‘What is wrong with me?’

This could come with several rounds of tears and after your pillow is soaked, you may still not have the answers.

I know that it can be a very painful place because you were created by God to have a purpose and live intentionally.

If this is you, I recommend using these intentional journaling prompts I’ll share next. They will help you set intentional goals so that you can find meaning and purpose in all areas of your life. So what does that mean?

We will be setting goals in the following areas: spiritual, financial, physical health, and mental health because these are the things we talk about here on HAYC. So if you’re ready, let’s get started!

10 Life-Giving Biblical Journaling Affirmations For Self-Esteem When You Feel Unloved & Invisible!

–10 Biblical Affirmations For Self-Esteem When You Don’t Know Your Worth

Why would someone need to know any biblical affirmations for self-esteem?

Sometimes as Christian women, it can be easy to believe that we have less worth to God in his kingdom and it can really take a toll on our self-esteem!

At least that is how I have felt in the past (and secretly sometimes still do). 

Especially when you read the Bible and learn that the roles that God defined for us don’t always line up with the roles the world has defined for us.

I know I have felt less than in Christian spaces because it does sometimes seem like women are not as important to God as men are.

But don’t worry…women really do have worth in God’s eyes. Just look around you; God has done and is still doing great and mighty things through women in various fields of life.

Not only that but if you read the New Testament, you will see just how valuable women were to our Savior, Jesus.

Today, I’ll share some bible verses that can help you get your confidence back. These biblical affirmations for self-esteem will remind you that God loves you no matter how you’ve felt in the past.
