Since some of you have found seeing these pages useful, I occasionally post them here.
If you zoom in on my handwriting, I trust you can see in the photos below what I’m thinking about spiritually, and what I’m praying with during my weeks. Sometimes I quote directly in these notes, but more often, I jot phrases or put things in my own words.
Most of the time I remove gendered terms for God. Lately, I’ve been writing the action items– the imperatives– I need to do in the right hand column, with everything else on the left hand side. I am really loving paying attention to this distinction, as well as focusing on implementing those injunctions.
It is making a difference in me being able to make these lessons practical and transformative. I highly recommend it!
And I encourage you to do your own Bible study. I find the process of journaling while I study really helpful for making it my own. Plus it makes it more fun, especially with fountain pens and various colors of ink.
If you want to learn more about the weekly Bible Lessons that I do, or wish to access them for yourself, click here. And since someone always asks, this is the journal I use, at the rate of one page per week. I’m finishing up this “anthracite” colored journal, and have just purchased a forest green one to fill next.
Hope this is either interesting, helpful, or instructive for you!
