Prepare Your Heart

Prepare your heart for Easter by dwelling in God’s Word

Each day’s prayers are firmly grounded in Scripture. Read and pray through the daily Lectionary readings for Lent, allowing God’s Word to permeate your heart and soul as you pray.

Open your heart to more closely follow in God’s way

The daily readings and prayers are focused on coming before God with a humble and penitent heart. As you pray through this season, you’ll open your heart to God, confess your sins, and prepare to more closely follow in God’s way.

Learn a new method of prayer – praying with Anglican prayer beads (optional)

Using prayer beads isn’t a requirement for this devotional, but it can enhance your experience.

Anglican prayer beads have been widely adopted by Protestant believers and add a tangible aspect to your prayers, helping you focus and dwell longer in prayer.

Instructions for praying with prayer beads are included in this devotional, along with several bonus prayers you can pray throughout the year.

As a young adult, thought I knew how to pray. Afterall, I'd grown up in the church. I knew all the standard prayers. I prayed with some regularity.

Yet, when I heard others pray and heard how prayer was an integral part of other people's lives, I knew I must be missing something.

Even though I prayed and knew prayer was important, it wasn't an essential part of my life.

Prayer was never my first stop.

I wasn't really experiencing actual results from my prayers. I hadn't unlocked the full power of prayer.

That all changed when I decided to dive deeper into prayer. I decided I wanted to find out what I was missing.

I committed to pray daily and develop a consistent prayer habit.
Next, I opened my heart to God and asked him to meet me in prayer.
I learned to listen for God's voice in my prayers and to pray through his Word in scripture.

Through this journey of prayer I met a real, personal, relational God.

I discovered the power of prayer in my life and began to experience real results from my prayers.
I began to understand how crucial prayer was for my life and how prayer should always be my first step.

My faith was transformed through prayer and I want to help you unlock that power of prayer in your life, too!

Anglican (or Protestant) Prayer Beads are for anyone to use. In fact, Christians have been praying with prayer beads for centuries.

Prayer beads add a tactile component to your prayers. The act of holding the beads and moving from one bead to the next brings focus to your prayers.

Anglican prayer beads were specifically designed using Protestant symbolism. There are no set prayers to pray with these beads. Instead, the intent is to use them for any prayers, typically prayers based in Scripture.

If you struggle to slow down and spend time in prayer or are easily distracted when you pray, prayer beads are a great way to slow down, eliminate distractions, and savor your time in prayer.
