Journaling

I used to really have a problem with journaling. I loved the idea of it but hated so many things about it. My love hate relationship with journaling led to me start journal after journal, but abandon them in disappointment, guilt, and frustration. From what I hear, I am not alone in this battle. However, somehow over the last few years, I have figured out a method of journaling that works for me. I still get frustrated when I mess up, or skip a page accidentally, but I have found ways to make it work around my mistakes, and even find value in God when confronted with my frustrating imperfection. I now have in my possession an ever growing record of God’s work in my life and heart. I also continue to learn many things about myself and my faithful and forgiving God. I want to use this space to display some of what I learn and inspire others to journal.
