Video or Audio

• Make your prayer journals electronic by recording them in video or audio format. By recording your journal electronically, as opposed to just writing your prayers in a paper journal, you can hear your prayers. You can feel the intensity of your prayers and the emotions you experienced while praying. To create a video prayer journal, connect a web camera to your computer to record your video, or use a digital camcorder placed on a tripod. To record your prayers using audio only, you can use a hand-held voice recorder. You can also connect a microphone to your computer for recording purposes. Some computers come with a built-in microphone. Check your computer's manual to determine whether or not it has a built-in mic.
  
  

Blogging

• Although many people might consider their prayers to be private, creating a blog prayer journal lets you use your prayers to help others. So many people on the Internet are experiencing the same things you are praying about, whether it is prayer for a sick loved one, prayer for finances or prayer for a job. Some people on the Internet want to pray, but don't know how to. By posting your prayers in blog format, along with updates when your prayers are answered, you can allow others to read your prayers and get encouraged. Some websites that allow you to create blog prayer journals are blogger.com and livejournal.com.
  
  

Journals for Loved Ones

• Create a prayer journal filled with original prayers you have written concerning your children or loved ones. This can be prayers concerning their daily life activities or future activities. For example, you can pray for their daily safety during their school years, for their future spouse, for a long life, for their college education and for their career endeavors. After writing a prayer journal for your children or loved ones, consider putting it in book format and presenting it to them as a keepsake. It will be a sentimental gift they can reflect on throughout their life. They can go back and read the prayers you have already prayed concerning any life obstacles they may encounter. You can get your book printed by contacting a local printing press or by visiting a website such as cafepress.com.
