In his daily Bible study email, my pastor told me to write down what I believe God is telling me so I can see how to adjust my life to him. This is wonderful advice on so many levels. If I keep track of what I believe God is telling me, I can look back and see if there is a discernible pattern. I can look back at my journal and see how LONG God has been telling me something. If I write it down, I won't have to worry if I am remembering things the right way.
A few years ago we were praying about the possibility of moving. By writing down my questions, my fears, my thoughts, and then writing down things God was showing me, I was able to go back and read to see that God wanted us to stay right here.
Most of the time God speaks to me in small bites - the scripture during a sermon, something a Christian friend says to me, personal bible study material, a song played on K LOVE. By writing down all the "small" things - I can see clearly what God is directing me to do.
Do you keep of journal of your prayers and God's answers? Can you share some of them with me?
