Important Suggestion to my fellow Journalers

If these posts are too long for you to complete, I suggest that you print off the prompt that is of current interest to you and then tape it into your journal for future reference. The prompts are such that you can do it in one sitting or you can break each idea down and use them as separate prompts. There is no set rule on how to use these prompts. They can be used as lessons for your auxiliaries too. Hope you enjoy them and may they glorify the Lord in all the ways you use them. God bless your writing experiences.

Important Note:

Most of these prompts will come from my own thoughts, but there may some that I have found from other people and want to share with you. Some of the prompts may be repeats to some of you who are members of the same online groups I am in, but I will include them for the new journalers out there reading this blog. And sometimes prompts are so good they are worth repeating. You may use a prompt over and over again and reply to it differently each time. I will give credit to prompts I find when I know the person who submitted the prompt or gave it to me by other means. If I find a journaling site that has prompts I will include them too. Thank you for your understanding.

Words to Inspire from IDEALS - Thanksgiving

Words of Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving...invites God to bestow a second benefit.  Robert Herrick

We mistake the gratuitous blessings of heaven for the fruits of our industry.  Roger L'Estrange

Each day comes bearing its gifts.  Untie the ribbons.  Ann Ruth Schabacker

One act of thanksgiving when things go wrong with us is worth a thousand thanks when things are agreeable to our inclination.  St. John of Avila

May silent thanks, at least to God, be given with a full heart; our thoughts are heard in heaven.
William Wordsworth

The Lord is Good - Psalm 100

Without Thankfulness by John Henry Jowett

Life without thankfulness is devoid of love and passion.
Hope without thankfulness is lacking in fine perception.
Faith without thankfulness lacks strength and fortitude.
Every virtue divorced from thankfulness is maimed and limps along the spiritual road.
