Here is a guide for journaling using a template with small spaces for daily reflection as published in the 2020 Spring Lutheran Woman's Quarterly.
Lenten Devotional Template
Instructions for using this devotional template
In the margins or on a piece of paper, summarize the devotion or Scripture reading in one-two sentences.
Next, narrow it even further, using just a few words (like a tag line) to summarize what it says to you. Write those words inside a space on the template.
If there are any word pictures or images that come to mind, you can incorporate them with, or instead of, words. (This may be done with illustrations or a color choice.)
Each day, as you reflect and respond to the reading, you can also look back and review previous days’ responses. What is God revealing on your Lenten journey?
The 40 spaces are for the 40 days of Lent. Sundays are not included. You may choose to skip journaling on Sundays or finish the template on Palm Sunday if you include Sunday devotions.

Share the message of Christ this Advent with a scripture paper chain!
Print each page of this four page pdf on a different, brightly colored sheet of 8½ x 11" paper. Cut along the lines, sort into numerical order, and tape or glue the chain together. Each day, tear off the number corresponding to the appropriate day in December, read it as part of your Advent devotion, or share it each day with someone with whom or for whom you have been praying.
Advent Chain — with instructions (4 pgs)
More Ways to Use It
• Create an extra chain and share with a busy mom in your neighborhood or church.
• Share with your church community to use at an Advent event or for a Sunday school class.
• Share a chain with a shut-in or someone who might need some Christmas cheer.
• Give a follow-up call to the friends you’ve shared a chain with and ask how you can pray for them this season.
• Choose some verses to commit to memory.
• Instead of removing a link in the chain each day, you could add a link each day and use it as a decoration.
