5 Keys to Successful Bible Journaling

There are a lot of people who are new to Bible Journaling.  I thought I'd give you my 5 keys to successful Bible Journaling.

1. Set-up a routine.
This will help keep you on track and help keep you motivated.

2. Learn what works for you.
This is the most important thing to remember. What works for me, will probably not work for you and vice versa. You may have to try a few things before you find what works for you.

3. Don’t be afraid to flip things up.
If you get stagnant in your routine... Flip it up. Doing something different can reenergize you.

4. Be accommodating.
Allow yourself to have a day off if you need it or don’t feel good. Yes, you’re doing this for spiritual growth, but if you’re not feeling it, it’s okay.

5. Remember, this is about you growing with God.
Always keep the focus on God. If it becomes more about anything else, then, you need to rethink your motives.

Bonuses...
Don’t get caught up in the stuff.
Don’t catch FOMO when people are posting all their stuff. It’s very easy to want everything you see. If this starts happening... refer to #5.

Don’t get jealous of others.
It’s very easy to feel bad because other people’s layouts look better than yours. Try not to get jealous. If this starts happening... refer to #2 & #5.

HAVE FUN!
Most of all have fun as you grow spiritually.
