A moment, a day, a life transformed by prayer.
The 2027 VMP Prayer Journal Collection was born from the two quietest, most holy hours of the day. Sunrise and sunset. Those soft, in-between moments when the sky changes color and God feels close enough to touch. This year’s journals carry that light with them, wrapped in the colors of the sky and finished in warm gold.
We made them for the mornings you want to begin with Him, and the evenings you want to hand back to Him.
You don’t have to be a “prayer warrior” to pray like one
Maybe you have a friend whose prayer life looks so easy and so close. The kind of woman you think to call when you need someone to go to God on your behalf. And maybe, if you’re honest, you can’t imagine anyone ever describing you that way.
Here is the good news, friend. A steady, honest, God-honoring prayer life is not a personality type. It is a practice. It grows the same way any relationship grows, with a little space, a little consistency, and a place to show up.
That is the whole reason these prayer journals exist. Not to add one more thing to your list, but to give your wandering mind somewhere to land, and your heart somewhere to return, day after day.
That has been my experience using Val Marie Paper prayer journals since I was customer, before owning VMP was ever even a thought. Praying this way has not only brought me a peace that is indescribable and can only be attributed to the Lord, but it has taught me how to boldly pray for the people I love.

What makes a Val Marie Paper prayer journal different
No secret formula. Just a simple, prayerful format that clears out the noise and holds space for you and the Lord.
Inside every journal you’ll find prompted category pages to help you organize your prayers for the world, your community, your family, your friends, and your own heart. There’s a dedicated section for answered prayers, so you can look back and watch how faithfully God has been working. Because nothing grows our faith, or our desire to keep praying, quite like remembering what He has already done. Alongside the prompts, there’s open, lined space for writing out longer prayers and for naming a few daily gratitudes.
And then there’s the way they feel in your hands. Every journal is wrapped in beautiful linen, stamped in gold foil, and bound with a gold spiral so it lays completely flat. You can leave it open on the counter while your hands are busy and your heart keeps praying.
Rhythms or Signature? Here’s the difference
Both journals share the same prayerful heart. The difference is simply the rhythm of your season.
The Rhythms Journal is a dated, 12-month prayer journal. It carries you through a full year, with the prompted prayer sections, the answered-prayer pages, long-form prayer space, and daily gratitude lines all built in. If you love a fresh start and a full-year companion, this is your journal. 2027 colors: Rosewater, Amethyst, and Dusk. Set side by side, the three colors fade from one into the next like a sunset over the water.
The Signature Journal is an undated, 6-month prayer journal with those same beloved prompted sections. What sets it apart is the open space. Each month includes 29 lined pages, and every page begins with three dotted lines for your daily gratitudes, leaving the rest of the room for your prayers. If you’d rather start any time of year, or you love room to write, this one’s for you. 2027 colors: Sky, Cerise, and Butter Yellow.
Colors drawn from the sky
The whole 2027 palette comes from the hours we feel closest to God. The blush of first light, the deep amethyst of dusk, the slow blue-gray settling of evening. When you line the three Rhythms journals up together, they become a sunset, moving from warm to cool across the spines. It’s a small, quiet reminder that He is with us at every hour, from the morning we wake to the night we rest.
