Teenagers often experience many confusing feelings. They experience a type of peer pressure that can often be overwhelming, and are deeply concerned with pleasing others. Teenagers can often make some critical decisions during these years based in emotion, and are often not mature enough to say no to negative influences. A prayer journal can help teenagers stay on track of their goals, dreams, and aspirations, as well as being a way to communicate their feelings about problems, without judgments, criticisms, or disappointing others. It also offers teenagers the opportunity to work out their feelings, and prevent the negative pitfalls associated with people pleasing.
