Twelve Benefits
Twelve Great Reasons To Journal
When the “WHY” gets big enough, the “HOW” will work itself out.
I remember the days of old; I meditate on all Your works; I muse on the work of Your hands. (Psalm 143:5)
What are your needs?
What are your dreams?
What is your DESTINY?
Let’s talk first about why you should journal. What are the benefits for you? Unless you are convinced that journaling is going to make a big difference in your life, you are very likely to give up on this great habit before it’s firmly established. But when the “WHY” gets big enough, the “HOW” will work itself out.
Pastor Rick Warren, author of The Purpose Driven Life, says the purpose of the Bible is to change lives and the purpose of preaching is to change lives. The purpose of journaling is to change your life. It’s that simple.
Here are twelve (12) great reasons to journal that I discovered through my own extensive personal journaling experiences:
- SLOW DOWN To MEDITATE On The Word Of God – Hear God’s Quiet Still Voice
- Allow God To Be Your MASTER COACH
- Build Your FAITH BY REMEMBERING What God Has Done
- Keep Your PRIORITIES In Order
- Great Spiritual HABIT (Discipline)
- REST, REFLECTION, And REVELATION – The Tricord Of Leverage
- Build Your PRAYER life
- Learn And Apply Valuable LIFE LESSONS
- Establish UNCOMMON Relationships
- Live An UNCOMMON Life (Dream BIG)
- GET ORGANIZED
- Keep Your COMMITMENTS

Joseph, the twelve (12) REASONS “why” to journal came at the right time to cause me to pause and learn to apply a valuable lesson at this time in my life. Although my focus isn’t on journaling I have had the most delightful time allowing the Lord to express Himself through me to post on my web site. This was difficult to begin with as more than my eyes would see what was being said in a very personal and intimate relationship.
Thank you for the example you model plus the encouraging “PUSH” you always put before the world to see is an invitation to ‘come on in the water if fine’.
Hi Bertha, Thank you for taking the time to share your comment on this blog post. There is something very powerful about WRITING your thoughts and then sharing some of those with others. Writing brings clarity and focus, things that most of us can use much more of. Blessings, Randy

In reading the prayer in day #6, I found new perspective. I never thought of God being a journaler but in fact He is. The Bible is in essence a journal in which people were inspired by God to recrod the events of the lives on individuals journeying with Jesus. Through their records I’m able to receive inspiration, direction, correction and edification.
