DAY 4: Journaling With God

Today we will be discussing connecting to God daily.

As I shared a few days ago, prayer is an excellent way to connect to God. When you make talking to Him every day a habit, it becomes easier to experience His love for you. Another way you can speak to God and hear from God is through journaling. One way to use journaling in your relationship with God is to read Scripture and think about what God says to you through those messages. Then, you can keep track of your questions, thoughts, and the answers God sends you.

Over the years, I have found it helpful to keep a journal of my questions to God and His answers to me. This record gives me a place to talk to Him and write down my true heart feelings about who I am and His purpose. The daily questions here are an excellent way to begin the habit of journaling. Each time you connect with God and move toward the goal of knowing your purpose and destiny.

Takeaway: Journaling is an excellent way to expand your relationship with God; you can use your journal to keep track of your questions, thoughts, and answers God sends you.

Challenge yourself: Choose a scripture and take some time to think about what it says. Journal your feelings about it.

Questions to consider:

• Have you ever been surprised by something that came up when you journaled?
• How do such surprises help you learn more about yourself or the issues you’re facing?
