Prayer Journal

Okay - do you guys journal? And if you do, is it a prayer journal? Or is it a regular journal? Or can we assume that when we journal we’re talking to God without writing “Dear God” at the beginning of each entry.

I like to journal in bursts throughout the day. Observations, commentary, etc. but it’s not necessarily prayer like. And pages of prayer seem forced when I write them down. Is it wrong for us to journal just regularly?

I’m so confused about what to do. I like the way I journal but also want a better relationship with God. Help?! Sorry if this makes no sense!
