January Journaling


Journaling is the process of looking within and writing the feelings and emotions and then looking at those things from God's Word. This does require that you are being honest with yourself and that you are listening to God's Word and not all the voices around us. This type of journaling has been explained here.

January is a time of preparing. This is the time to set your goals but also and even more importantly a time to prepare yourself for the year ahead. This is a year of growth, a time to be and do all that God wants in your life.

With the thoughts of preparing here are some journaling questions for you for this month.

  • As you look at the new year and your goals, what fears do you have? What is causing those fears? How can you overcome your fears?
  • Looking at the fears you listed, what does God say about these fears? What truths of God can you cling to when those fears sneak in?
  • What do you think will tempt you or cause you to quit this year? If you have already written your goals you might want to think of this for each goal. 
  • What truth from God's Word can you claim to help you when you are tempted to quit?
  • What truths about God can you claim for this year? Why are those important to you at this time?

Take some time to think about these. These questions should help you to just think about some of the challenges that you will face this year and just be ready and prepared.

Each month I will give some journaling questions to just help you as you work through the focus of that month.

My desire is that you will grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Saviour this year.

What are some of the things that might cause you to quit this year?

Beth
