At the start of this year, something stirred inside me. I’ve never been a morning person. I love slow mornings—the kind without alarms, without rushing out the door. But one morning in early 2025, that changed. God woke me up. It was 4 a.m., and it felt like someone had gently grabbed my shoulders to wake me from a deep sleep. Startled, I sat up—but no one was there. I slipped into my sweater and slippers and quietly made my way downstairs. What I didn’t know then was that this moment would mark the beginning of a new rhythm. Morning after morning, the same thing happened. I’d wake, feel that pull, and find myself downstairs before the world was awake. My sister had given me a journal for Christmas, and I decided to pair it with my one-year Bible reading plan. I’d tried before—many times—but always lost momentum by spring. This time was different. With my journal open, my Bible beside me, and the nudge of the Spirit leading me, I stayed the course. Those early hours became sacred. I’d read, reflect, and begin to write. What started as quiet time with God became a flood of ideas, vision, and purpose. It felt like a faucet had been turned on—He was pouring something through me, not just for me. I knew He was asking me to share what I was learning with other women. From those mornings came an entire new chapter of my life: I started a business, completed a nutrition certification, created products for women, and began living with a sense of purpose and fulfillment I’d never known before. People often ask how I do it all, and my answer is simple—it started with my morning quiet time. The Spirit of God filled me in a way that made the work light and the direction clear. And that’s where the idea for this journal was born. It was created from a deep desire to help women live abundantly—to grow spiritually, mentally, and physically. To have a place where all of it can live together: your daily time with God, your goals, your reflections, and the whispers He speaks into your heart. Because when you bring your life and faith together in one space, everything changes. You begin to see that faith isn’t just one part of your life—it’s the foundation that everything else flows from. Faith and wellness aren’t separate journeys; they’re beautifully connected. That’s what this journal did for me—and it’s what I pray it does for you. 2026 can be the year everything changes. Seek Him first. Give Him your quiet moments. Let Him guide your steps. My prayer is that this journal helps you do just that. xx, Lauren
