Project Blessed Prayer Pledge

PROJECT BLESSED PRAYER PLEDGE

We pledge that for the first part of the year 2016, we will pray daily together as a sisterhood.

Whether it be reading the daily devotions (subscribe here), prayer journaling, lectio divina, reading the Word, a rosary, silent time, etc., we will dive into prayer.

January 1st-31st will be a new start to the year and a time to dedicate ourselves again to even 10 minutes of devoted prayer time.

If you’re “in,” then comment below with a “Yes!” or “I’m in!” or “I’ll try!”

Whatever your response, know that you have sisters walking with you. Let’s hold each other accountable in prayer and in life.

Ponder the poem below (attribution is hard to find), and then comment with your pledge.

Disturb us, Lord, when
We are too well pleased with ourselves,
When our dreams have come true
Because we have dreamed too little,
When we arrived safely
Because we sailed too close to the shore.

Disturb us, Lord, to dare more boldly,
To venture on wider seas
Where storms will show your mastery;
Where losing sight of land,
We shall find the stars

Pledge by commenting below.

To a new year, sister in Christ.

    I’m in…because I long for a flat on my face, I surrender, you are Mine, ugly cry, come to Jesus prayer that heals me in an instant, evaporates my insecurity and fears, quiets the voices with way too much clout and explodes in my heart a huge amount of confidence in God’s Love for me..so much that it barely fits and changes me forever. yeah, so I’m in.

    I am in! I’ve been thinking about some resolutions to start this year off lately and this one seems like a *perfect* way to ring in 2016. I also thank you all for the prayers and accountability in advance!

    I am IN!!
    I desperately need this. My prayer life is up and down, and I long for accountability from my Catholic sisters. I also hope to blog more this year, as a means of sharing my faith journey with others.

    They say a goal is more likely to be kept if you write it down, so this is me writing my commitment to give God my time everyday. I’m in!

    I’m in!! Being received into the Church at the Easter vigil and this will be the perfect platform to prepare my heart. Brilliant idea, thanks!

    Totally! I will commit to a decade of the rosary and 10 minutes in silent prayer before bed each night or immediately after waking each morning.
