It is so critical that we take time to pause, reflect, record, and recount, however, the pace and demands of this life make that challenging.How do we fit it all in?God wants to speak to us. He has so many important things to say. He wants us to fully experience his love. He also wants us to grow more and more like him but this requires us to stop...to listen...to respond...and to remember. This is why we journal.God can speak with tremendous clarity, but God most often likes to speak in the times when we quiet ourselves long enough to hear his whisper. These moments are when the most intimate and loving conversations happen. He wants us to lean into him and really listen carefully. We want to make sure we record what God says to us in these intimate moments so that we have the ability to look back on these sweet messages later in life.The Ten Minute Journal is here to help us stop for just 10 minutes so that we can hear God speak. Taking this short but critical time will help us remember how God has loved us and the growth we have experienced. This brief pause will open our eyes throughout our day to see where God is blessing, where we are struggling to trust, and where our hope is resting. It is a way to very quickly, but intentionally, record life.The Ten Minute Journal asks us six questions each day. These questions will push us to recall the events of the day, focus on who God is, and discover what is driving us. God calls us to know him, guard our hearts, and to be watchful as to what is happening around us. Answering The Ten Minute Journal questions will help us do all three. Whether The Ten Minute Journal is used in quiet intimate time with God or as a tool for your small group Bible study, asking consistent questions in an ever changing world will help us clearly see who God is, what he is doing, and where we are placing our trust. The purpose of The Ten Minute Journal is to be a tool to help you create the disciple of journaling. Capturing what you experience each day and your thoughts about those experiences is so critical to your understanding, learning and growth. God uses what happens during each day to teach us about who he is and who you are. Our job is to "take notes" as the master teacher teaches. All this can be done is just 10 minutes a day, with The Ten Minute Journal. Be brave enough to walk intentionally through this life and enjoy the ride.
