Days get hectic with little ones running around. It can be easy for prayer gets squeezed out in the midst of meal planning, naps, baths, and all the other things that need to be done. A Busy Mom’s Prayer Journal by Christina Joy Spaeth breaks daily prayer time into bite-sized chunks that can fit into a few minutes.
Although I was unable to complete each section of a given journal prompt into the suggested seven minutes per day, I discovered another benefit to this book. On one day I might read the prayer and write me thoughts for the first prompt. The next day I might review and add to the Gratitude or Mom Wins lists. If needed, on the third day I might concentrate on the Worship and Reflections portion of the entry. Doing so allowed me to ponder the love Jesus has for me and the discipleship role of busy moms at a far deeper level of understanding and connection with the Lord. I especially appreciate the section in the back to record prayers and when God answers them.
As someone who has provided day care for the child of working parents, I believe this book could also enhance the prayer life of grandparents or others in similar situations.

I start each day with a devotion or prayer prompt. Then I like to to write my thoughts, prayers, and praises in a journal at the end of the day when I am winding down. This journal lends itself readily to doing this.
