May Christian Journaling Prompts
Just a quick note before we begin: I’d love to invite you to join my Christian Snail Mail Club!
Each month, I send out letters, Scripture cards, Bible studies, stickers, and small reminders that faith can be held in your hands, all for $10. It has been such a joy to use what I have to share the Word of God, and I would truly love for you to be part of it.
Here are some Christian journal prompts for May! I usually journal in the morning after reading my Bible, but please don’t treat this as a task or assignment. It’s meant to get you to spend some more time thinking about Jesus. You can skip days or skip around; there are no rules.
