Guidelines (Before subscribing, please print this page for daily reference.)

The following guidelines are suggestions to help you get a smooth start as you journal your prayers and Bible study in My Partner Prayer Journal.

1. Think of your journal as your PARTNER. Take it with you to church, on retreats, to overnights, vacations, and study groups; use it as a date book/daily organizer. Put it in a familiar place each day, so it will be readily available when you need it and are looking for it!

2. Picture yourself in an actual appointment with God. Choose a quiet spot and, most importantly, plan for this time. You may have to set your alarm for earlier than usual, carving out additional time rather than squeezing in time already allotted for other things. You may actually want to block time out on your daily calendar to keep from changing and shifting your quiet time. Sometimes you will have to plan around other people’s schedules to assure yourself of few (or no) interruptions. Have an attitude of expectancy (Psalm 5:3).

3. Choose the same time of day for your appointment whenever possible. This habit becomes a link to consistency. The times you have already set for regular responsibilities, such as leaving for school or work, may need to be adjusted or rearranged. This will enable you to spend quality, unrushed time praying and reading your Bible.

4. Decide upon a specific amount of time that you will spend in prayer and Bible study. This time can be lengthened or shortened once you have determined what is realistic for you or your life. A minimum of twenty minutes is a good place to begin. You can set this amount of time after reviewing your current weekly schedule and praying about how much time is appropriate for you to spend having a quiet time. Share your goal with a friend, parent, pastor or prayer partner. He or she can help keep you accountable to your decision.

I’m convinced that this guideline of a specific length of time has made my own daily quiet time a success. I actually note the time when I first put my pencil to the paper to help make sure that I fulfill my commitment to my appointment with God. There have been numerous times when I would have slept in, changed plans, or been too tired to have my quiet time had I not made this decision. It has turned into a positive action step, rather than a burden hanging over me.

5. If you have an interruption, return to your appointment with God at the earliest possible time. When I have too many interruptions, I know I’ve been planning poorly, procrastinating, oversleeping, or that my priorities are out of balance. I’m convinced that the earlier I set my daily appointment with God, the better my day will begin and end. Be sure to "click" UPDATE after every journal entry.  This is the key to saving your journal entries.

6. If you miss a day, or even a week, immediately start up again —as often as you have to until your time with God becomes a daily habit. Don’t try to catch up or double up what you think you have missed. Just press on! Persist. Don’t give up! You can do it! You need it! Remind yourself of Hebrews 12:11: “No discipline seems pleasant at the time, but painful. Later on, however, it produces a harvest of righteousness and peace for those who have been trained by it.” Dating each page will help you remain accountable to yourself, as well as to chart your personal spiritual journey.

7. Make your time with God a priority. PLAN FOR IT! And expect great things!
