Recall an event in your childhood when you were happy and carefree. Write about it as if you were telling a friend the story, answering questions like: What were your parents doing? How were you feeling? Where were you? Why were you joyful? Afterward, list five reasons that story is so idyllic.
This is part of Mary E. DeMuth’s guided journal, “Creating the Family You Always Wanted,” a 12-week journey in Christian parenting. Twice a week, you’ll receive a new journaling prompt encouraging you to think about your family–and God–in new ways. Use these prompts in your own journal or in group discussion. If you’re joining this journal mid-way through, you can start journaling at any time, and stay subscribed at the end, when the journal will restart and you can receive the prompts that you missed.
