Reviewer: Diana Lea

​I chose this Holy Habits guide because I have spent many hours as a prayerful woman in the past, but I have gotten away from it. I am now ready to jump back in. Using this guide, I have indeed been encouraged that I can pick right back up where I left off. I would also recommend this guide to someone new to a written prayer journey.

The guide begins with a section about what prayer is, how simple it can be to meet with God in prayer, and the benefits of making prayer a habit. 

The main part of the book has a two-page spread for each day. The first page gives us an opening prayer for the day. I felt the simple prayers offered brought people and situations to my mind to pray about in a heartfelt way. The PATH (praise, admit, thank, help) format gave such an easy way to remember to first acknowledge who God is and the wonders He does. My heart immediately softened. I found no problem filling out the section on seeking forgiveness for my sins, finding things to be thankful for, and lastly, requesting His help. 

The second page of the day has a Bible verse to ponder and an invitation to journal. Familiar verses with simple truths brought a smile to my face and a release of peace to my heart. As someone reluctant to journal, I found these prompts did not repel me. I felt drawn in with a "Hey, I understand this verse! I do have some thoughts to put down here on paper.”

The author has also provided us with a summary page at the end of the 30 days to reflect on our journey. I have enjoyed this guide, and I am looking forward to other journals and studies by Kimberley Payne.

I received a copy of this book from the author through Interviews & Reviews. The opinions stated above are entirely my own.
