Women in Ministry
Before you speak the Word into others, let the Word speak into you.
He placed you in this ministry before you felt adequate — trust the placement.
You know the prayer you pray for everyone else, all week, and the one you have not quite prayed for yourself in months? Underneath is a quieter question — about whether the well you are pouring from is still being filled. This journal sits with that quieter question. Five honest minutes a day that belong only to you. The work you do for others is held by Someone who tends to you too, and the ministry begins to flow from a deeper place than effort, the way it did when you first started.

About this collection
Each journal in this collection is for women in ministry who came looking for a daily practice that holds up past the first ten days. The structure is the same every day — short enough to keep on the busy mornings, honest enough for the harder evenings. After 140 days, what's changed isn't the season. It's the steady daily presence you've kept inside it.
