Ever felt like you’re doing everything — reading the Bible, praying, going to church — and still wondering if God is actually speaking?

If so, this week’s episode of Her Faith at Work is for you.

I sat down with journaling coach and writer Tracy Dempsey, and what she shared stopped me in my tracks. We talked about the one shift that helped her finally hear from God more clearly — and how it impacted not just her faith walk, but her business, too.

Why Journaling With God Changes Everything

That feeling of spiritual disconnect? Tracy had it too — until she changed the way she journaled. Instead of writing to God, she started writing with Him. That posture of expectation led to a shift in her whole life.

“I was doing everything right… and still wondered if He was talking to me.”

– Tracy Dempsey

As she re-read old entries, she saw patterns, confirmations, songs, and dreams — all pointing in the same God-led direction. Her journal became a conversation, not a monologue.

Is Journaling for You?

If you’ve ever said, “I’m not a journaler,” you’re not alone. I said it too. But after this conversation with Tracy, I’m rethinking that label.

Journaling isn’t just about recording thoughts — it’s about making space for divine dialogue. Tracy’s process includes:

  • Color-coding spiritual themes and business ideas
  • Indexing for easy reference
  • Using one notebook for both life and work insights
  • Looking for patterns that confirm what God is speaking

Friend, this isn’t busywork. This is partnership with the Holy Spirit — and it might just unlock the clarity you’ve been craving.

Faith-Driven Journaling for Business Breakthrough

When we slow down and expect God to speak, He does. Tracy’s story is proof that a consistent journaling practice can:

  • Help you recognize divine direction
  • Bring clarity to your business decisions
  • Reignite intimacy with God

And if you’re already a journaler? This episode will challenge you to go deeper — to expect more from the page and the process.

Your Next Step

If your spirit is hungry for clarity — in your faith or your business — journaling might be the tool God uses to bring breakthrough.
