6 Creative Journaling Prompts to Encourage Your Spirit

In a season of high anxiety, global wars, and political uncertainty, it's easy to become overwhelmed, discouraged, and disillusioned. With daily individual demands and ongoing worldwide challenges, our minds are often overloaded with thoughts, to-do lists, and feelings of hopelessness. While we desire to remain hopeful, it is easy to become discouraged. Whenever my mind is on overload or I'm feeling out of control, I pause to connect with God to receive His peace. Journaling has always helped me share my unfiltered thoughts with God, and God always speaks. When I don't have the words to say verbally, writing has always lifted my spirit and soothed my soul. I have journals from years ago that I read and remember how God has answered prayers, gaining confirmation that God was always with me. When you feel discouraged with your circumstances or try to process the world's massive challenges, God's Word says don't lose heart. Be encouraged that God is with you and wants to strengthen and uplift your spirit. Here are six creative journaling prompts to encourage your spirit:Photo Credit: ©Getty Images/Milko
