I can't begin to tell you how important journaling is to remembering what you’ve just learned from your scripture study. Remember in grade school when your teacher would tell you to say your spelling words out loud while you were writing them. That was to help you remember them. It’s kind of the same thing. Journaling is like telling someone about what you’ve just learned.
But journaling goes so far beyond that.
Reasons for journaling:
1.To keep our thoughts straight.2.It keeps us on track and motivated.
3.It help us remembering details.
4.Expressing our thoughts and feelings
5.It’s a history of something we were passionate enough to write it in our journal.
There are so many things you can journal about.
1.Personal journal 2.Church journal
3.Study journal
4.Conference journal
5.Blessings journal
6.A journal about your children’s youth
7.A journal about a particular event
If it means something to you, you can journal about it.
You can keep your journal on a computer or on paper, what’s ever is more comfortable for you. A lot of people like writing in paper journals because it allows them to add pictures and such. I prefer to keep my journal on my tablet using Microsoft Word. That way I can use a template and set it up for the whole year. Here’s an example of my church and scripture study journal.
