Free Children's Prayer Journal (ages 7-10)

Every year for Christmas, I buy something of spiritual significance for my niece and nephew. I am a Christian and so are their parents, so helping them learn about the Lord and develop in their own understanding of God, Jesus, and the Bible is important to us.

Last year, I looked for a kids' devotional to give to my niece, but couldn't find one I liked. Maybe I'm too picky, but I thought most of them were slightly superficial, even for children, or I had issues with their doctrine and use of scripture (taken out of context). So, if anyone knows of a good one, please let me know!

After my failed search, I decided to take on the task of writing my niece a prayer journal guide. She is 7 and has a hard time with prayer (what child doesn't?!-I am an adult and I struggle with it!) I wanted to make it fun for her, though prayer isn't always fun. But, she's a kid, after all. I wanted her to learn that prayer is simply talking to God and because God is creative, we can talk to Him creatively. I also wanted it to be something she could do on her own without any adults forcing her-but she could also share with her parents if she wanted to.

So, I asked for God's guidance and came up with a 30-day prayer journal guide based on the ACTS model of prayer (Adoration, Confession, Thanksgiving, Supplication).

This is my first time writing anything like this for children, so I would love to get some feedback! If you are a parent of a child ages 7-10, and would like a copy of this prayer journal for free-and would be willing to give me a little honest feedback, then please email me at cupofdelight@yahoo.com I will send you a free PDF copy now and will later send out an evaluation for it.
