The Joy of Loving God" -- the theme for this year's prayer journal and planner -- is taken from Blessed Mother Teresa, who continually exuded joy as she lived and worked among the poorest of the poor. The inspirational quotes from the saints on this theme, along with relevant Scripture passages, provide plenty of encouragement to rejoice in the Lord always! Our popular prayer journal has been designed this year to double as a planner, and includes a monthly calendar to keep track of appointments, along with space each day to write "to do" lists and other important reminders. Also included are pages to write down prayer intentions for family and friends. Readers will enjoy the colorful artwork depicting each season of the year.
