Visual Journaling Your Goals With ScriptureSample

Can you believe it's day six of our 7-day experience of visually journaling your goals? Today is all about your goals that are focused on your physical body.

Many Christians don't ever even think about their bodies in regards to thriving in life and creativity, but it's clear from God's Word that our bodies—the earthen vehicles that carry His Kingdom—are important to the Lord and vital to our ability to fulfill our assignment in the earth.

One of my favorite scriptures about the body is I Corinthians 6:19-20 which says:

Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your bodies. 

Just like your heart and mind are a garden, ready to be cultivated in order to produce a harvest, so is your body. What seeds are you sowing in your body? What fruit is being produced? The body you're in right now—just like your mindset—is the fruit of all that's been put inside of it, done to it, and how it's been cared for or neglected for all the years of your life.

As you approach today, remember that there's no condemnation in Christ. Today is a new day. His mercies are new every morning, and today is the day—right now—that you can begin afresh honoring the Lord with your physical body.

Take time to meditate on the scripture for today and then ask the Lord to show you His heart for your physical body. 

Use your sketchpad, notebook or journal taking time to doodle around and over what you’ve written with paint, markers or colored pencils. Celebrate with color! Enhance key words that stand out to you as anchors by prayerfully going back and circling the ones that resonate most with you.

When you're finished, share your journal with a friend or on social media.
