The How to Pray Devotional

Discover a nine-week rhythm of pursuing peace instead of perfectionism through the daily practice of prayer with this interactive devotional, designed specifically for young women in any stage of life.

No matter where you are in life, we all have something in common. We all understand the pressure to perform, the struggle with anxiety, and the comparison game. But what if something as simple as prayer could tip the scales in how we approach each day? What if making a habit of “casting our cares on God” could make a difference in our mental health? What if peace was something we could experience every week?

Designed specifically for young women in any stage of life, this interactive devotional is structured with a three-day-a-week format so you can take your time soaking in the material without worrying about “falling behind.” Each day includes a brief reading steeped in Scripture and practical application, space to draw or journal, fill-in-the-blank prompts, and questions for further reflection. Each week also teaches different ways to pray:

• Write your prayers with journaling or specific prompts.
• Go on a prayer walk out in nature or around your neighborhood.
• Follow the example of the Psalms and write your own guided prayer.
• Practice thanksgiving and contentment with gratitude prayers.
• And more!

Scripture tells us that “in this world, we will have trouble,” but Jesus has overcome the world. And when we make a regular practice of bringing our worries honestly before God, He is able to remove the power they have over our lives. Defeating anxiety, perfectionism, and comparison is not an overnight game, but by engaging in small and faithful steps like prayer and Bible reading, we can stop relying on our own strength and trust in God to comfort us in every part of our days.
