Why Keep a Journal? 

4/15/2014

0 Comments

 
 Why keep a journal? The most important reason is that the Lord encourages it. I wonder if it is because we simply forget things. It is difficult to remember yesterday, let alone last week or ten years ago.

 Another important reason is that it provides us with a roadmap of where we have been and how we arrived where we are. When we go back in our journal and read the chronological events we discover more clearly that He really is our Good Shepherd. He leads us daily. He has graciously led us along life’s pathway. Our journal serves as a reminder of the revelation and insights that God has given us.

 There is a time element in God’s plan for our lives. I have often taught that there are three components to seeing and experiencing the release of God’s will in our life. The first is being in the right PLACE. The second is being there at the right TIME. The third is being there with the right PEOPLE. Your Journal will confirm these principles.

Seeing What God Says
One of the most frequent comments I receive from Christians in regard to intimacy with the Lord is, “God is not speaking to me. I am not hearing anything. I am so frustrated.”

The scripture provides us with some clear answers regarding this dilemma. The prophet Habakkuk reveals several keys that are vital to communion with God and hearing His voice.

Habakkuk writes, “I will stand my watch and set myself upon the rampart, and watch to see what He will say to me and what I will answer when I am corrected.” Then the Lord answered, “Write the vision and make it plain on tablets, that he may run who reads it. For the vision is yet for an appointed time; but at the end it will speak, and it will not lie. Though it tarries, wait for it because it will surely come. It will not tarry.” (Habakkuk 2:1-3)
