Prayer Journal for Overwhelmed Moms
60 Days of Guided Prayers and Prompts to Let Go of Worry
by Rachel Whitaker
Your mind is running a list you never agreed to.
This journal is a place to put the worry down and hand it to God, even when your words have run out. There's no wrong way and no catching up. Missed a week? Just open it again.
What's inside
60 days, one two-page spread each
- Left page: a verse, a short guided prayer to borrow, one prompt, and room to write
- Right page, the same every day: what's heavy, handing it to God, thank You, praying for, and the peace you noticed later
- List pages at the back for the worries you've handed over, the people you're praying for, and answered prayers
Six parts of ten days: The 11 P.M. Brain, Too Much on the List, Mom Guilt, Doing It All Alone, Scared for the Kids, and Letting Yourself Rest. Open to the part that fits today, or start at Day 1.
Any stage of faith is welcome, including "not sure." This book is not a substitute for a doctor or counselor. When worry is heavy or won't lift, they come first.
