12 Free Scripture Writing Plans to Help You Start a Daily Bible Habit
In this post: As a busy mom, you might struggle to find time to read the Bible every day. These free printable Scripture writing plans make it easy to get started!
A few years ago, I was in a really bad place spiritually. I moved my focus away from Jesus, and all the beautiful blessings I had in my life. I was not content and I was not happy.
Suddenly, I was complaining a lot, and my spirit was becoming critical. Something had to change. I turned to God’s Word for help.
Daily Scripture writing changed my life. I know that sounds dramatic. But God has used the Scripture to work in me from the inside out.
The Bible tells us that God’s Word is powerful, and is able to discern the thoughts and intents of the heart.

5 Easy Steps to Start Scripture Writing
Writing Bible verses every day is a great method of Scripture engagement. If you’ve never tried it, I encourage you to try this new way to read and study the Bible.
It’s a great option for Christian women and busy moms who don’t have a lot of time to spend every day. You only need a few minutes to dip deep into God’s Word and become a strong woman of faith.
It’s super easy to get started!
1. Choose a time.
Carve out a specific time of day when you can dedicate 10-15 minutes to your Scripture plan. It could be part of your morning routine before the kids wake up, during naptime, or those last few peaceful moments before you go to sleep. You can fit it into any time of day that works for you.
2. Set up a space.
Create a designated area in your home where you’ll be able to focus on your Scripture writing. Keep all necessary supplies—such as your Bible, journal, and pens—within easy reach. (I like to keep all of my daily Scripture writing tools together in a little basket, so I can carry them anywhere.)
3. Select your plan.
Choose a Bible writing plan that resonates with you, or use one of our 12 free printable plans (see below). These plans offer a verse or passage for each day of the month.
4. Write the Scriptures.
Read your selected verse or passage and then write it out in your Scripture journal, taking the time to absorb and meditate on the Word.
5. Reflect and pray.
After writing the Scripture, take a moment to reflect on its meaning in your life and pray for clarity and understanding. Allow God to speak to your heart through the passages you’ve just read. You might even use a devotional prayer journal to guide you through Scripture writing and prayer.
The first thing to remember is that consistency is key, but perfection is not required! If you miss a couple of days, don’t give up. God’s Word will be right there waiting for you to come back.
12 Free Printable Scripture Writing Plans
To help you get started, I have created 12 Scripture writing plans (one for each month of the year) for you to download and print. Each plan features a specific theme to focus on (e.g., gratitude, faith, forgiveness, etc.), with corresponding verses selected for each day of the month.
Each of these free printable topical Scripture writing plans will help you focus on one area of your faith at a time. Feel free to use them for any month!
If you’ve always wanted to study the Bible, but felt overwhelmed by the size of it, this is a good place to start. You can break your study down into bite-size pieces. Just a little every day will help you learn more about God, His love for you, and how He wants you to live as a Christian.
My dear friend does this and I am intrigued. Could you substitute the May selection on motherhood?
