Bible/Prayer Prompts

Last week I shared reading and documentary prompts for the older kids to tackle this summer in light of cancelled camps.  Today I want to share some Bible and prayer prompts I've asked them to work through starting next week.  In the 11 weeks until school starts up again, I want them to read through the entirety of the Bible (works out to about 15 chapters a day) and spend some time at the end of every day journaling and praying through a few basic questions.  Feel free to share and use, and let me know if you have any comments.

Every morning: read Bible ~30 minutes

Every evening: journaling/prayer ~30 minutes

Journaling/prayer prompts (feel free to respond to any or all of them on a given day):

·         What was the main lesson from the Bible readings?

·         What was an action or thought where you were in the wrong that you need to confess to God (and potentially get right with someone else)?

·         What was a moment from today where you felt God was showing you something of His goodness and glory?

·         What happened today that you want to bring to God to ask for His help?

·         From today’s events, do you have any clarity on what God is doing in your life, to shape you into the person He wants you to be?
