Your quiet time is worth making room for.

Dear Black Woman, GOD SAID… A Prayer, Reflection & Writing Journal by Dr. Marva Jean Tutt, with a floral cover and a Black woman in a golden blouse
A little stillness. A deeper connection.
You are seen. You are loved. You are His.
How to use this journal

Six gentle steps. One sacred moment.

No perfect words. No pressure to have it all together.
Just you, these pages, and a God who is ready to meet you.

01

Pause

Quiet your heart before God. You don't have to rush this moment.

02

Pray

Pour it all out honestly. Every worry, every hope, every thank-you.

03

Reflect

Sit with what He's showing you. Let your words meet the page.

04

Release

Lay down what isn't yours to carry. Let God hold the weight.

05

Receive

Take in His truth about you. You are loved, seen, and enough.

06

Listen

Stay still and hear His voice. Make room for what comes next.

Who it's for

For the woman who gives
so much.
This moment is yours.

Dear Black Woman, you don't need to earn a moment of peace. Whether you're finding your way back to God or drawing a little closer, you belong here. Come as you are. Bring your whole heart.

Your morning quiet time

Before the day asks anything of you, begin with the One who knows your heart.

Your seasons of healing

When the words feel heavy, give them a home. There's room here for your tears and your becoming.

Your new beginnings

As you turn a new page in life, let faith be the gentle ground beneath your next step.

You don't have to have it all together to come to God. You just have to come.

A gentle reminder for your journey
