Fall invites us to slow down. As the air turns crisp and the pace of life seems to quicken, something inside us often longs to pause to reflect, reset, and draw near to the Lord again. For Christian women in business, this season can bring both beauty and pressure. The fourth quarter is full of opportunity, but it can also feel overwhelming if we’re not grounded in purpose and peace.
Personally, I’ve found that journaling is one of the most powerful ways to stay connected to God and aligned in my business. It’s not just about writing thoughts down; it’s about creating space to listen. When I journal, I’m not just checking in with my to-do list. I’m checking in with the Holy Spirit.
One of the most powerful shifts I’ve made in my journaling practice came from a dear friend’s advice. Instead of asking myself, “What am I thankful for today?” she encouraged me to ask, “God, what do You want me to be grateful for today?” That simple reframe changed everything. It helped me see things I’d overlooked, shifted my perspective, and reminded me that even my gratitude can be Spirit-led.

If you’re craving a deeper connection with the Lord this fall, especially in your business, I hope these journal prompts help you get there. Whether you're curled up with a blanket or sitting in your usual morning spot with your Bible and tea, take time to reflect with the Lord using these questions.

Quick Tips: Journaling Through the Fall Season
How to stay inspired, consistent, and connected
Keep your journal and a pen in a space where you already spend quiet time, by your Bible, your bookshelf, or your morning desk setup. Start with 2–3 prompts per week instead of feeling pressure to journal daily. Create a cozy atmosphere with a fall-scented candle, a warm drink, or soft worship music to help you slow down. Don’t worry about perfect grammar or writing style; this is for your heart, not for public sharing. If you’re feeling stuck, begin with a verse that’s speaking to you or a single question like, “Lord, what do You want me to see today?”
