🌤 Day 1: The God Who Sees Me

Then write what you think He would say back to you.

Prayer:

God who sees, help me notice the moments You draw near when I feel most alone.

🌪 Day 2: When the Lies Get Loud

Scripture: Isaiah 43:1 – “I have called you by name; you are mine.”

List 3 lies you’ve believed about yourself.

Then write God's truth in response to each one — like He’s rewriting them over your heart.

Whisper truth louder than my fear today, Lord.

🌱 Day 3: Holy Rebellion

Scripture: Matthew 11:28–30 – “My yoke is easy, and my burden is light.”

Yahweh, unburden me from rules You didn’t write.

💌 Day 4: Tea with the King

Scripture: Luke 10:39 – “Mary… sat at the Lord’s feet, listening.”

Prompt:

If you had one uninterrupted hour with Jesus in person, what would you ask Him?

Now imagine Him looking at you. What’s His expression? His posture? His silence?

Prayer:

Jesus, help me make space to sit with You — even if I say nothing at all.

🩹 Day 5: God of the Scarred

Scripture: John 20:27 – “Put your finger here… Touch my wounds.”

Describe one scar — emotional, spiritual, physical.

What might God be redeeming through it? Can you ask Him directly and listen?

Prayer:

You’re not ashamed of my wounds, Lord. Heal me from the inside out.

🌕 Day 6: Light in the Hide and Seek

Scripture: Psalm 139:7–12 – “Even the darkness will not be dark to you…”

Prompt:

Where do you feel like you’re hiding from God — or yourself?

Write about what it would look like to let His light in, just a little.

I’m not too hidden, too late, or too far for You. Shine anyway.

🔥 Day 7: Just the Start

Scripture: Philippians 1:6 – “He who began a good work in you…”

Prompt:

Look back over the week. What surprised you?

What’s one thing God stirred in your spirit?

What would it mean to keep going from here?

Prayer:

Keep writing Your story in me, Yahweh. I’m still listening.
