Write a journal entry

Keep a private diary with mood, reflection prompts, a calendar, and writing streaks.

Updated November 3, 2026

Your diary in Sacred is a private space for reflection, prayer, and gratitude.

Create an entry

  1. Open the Diary tab.
  2. Tap Add to start a new entry.
  3. Write freely using the formatting tools — headings, lists, bold, and more.

Add context to the moment

Each entry can capture a little more than words:

  • Mood — record how you’re feeling.
  • Prompts — stuck for words? Pick a reflection prompt to get started.
  • Hymn — attach a hymn that’s meaningful to the entry.
  • Photos — add up to 10 photos from your library or camera. Tap one to see it full screen, or press and hold to drag it into a new order.

Where your photos are kept

Photos stay on your device. With Sacred Premium they also sync to your other devices, with 5 GB of storage. Location and other metadata are removed from each photo when you add it.

Stay consistent

A calendar view shows the days you’ve written, and a writing streak encourages you to keep the habit going. Open any date to revisit what you wrote.

Tip

Your journal is private to you. When you’re signed in, entries sync securely across your devices.
