Do you journal? Sometimes I use a book to inspire journaling and other times I even use this blog to journal. I really love books like Break Out! Journal by Joel Osteen to help with the journaling process. With prompts at the end of each chapter, it allows my journaling to flow more easily.
12 Ways that Journaling is Important:
- helps you stay connected with God
- writing helps you come to terms with things struggles in your life
- increases your ability to focus on God and spiritual things
- allows you to organize your thoughts and prayers
- reduces the impact of stress when you can “get it all out”
- learn to know yourself better
- makes you thankful for the blessings you have
- allows you to visually see growth over time
- lets you look back at answered prayers and miracles
- enhances your creativity
- can find the writer in you
- helps heal the past

I have always kept a journal! Great stress reliever! This Joel Osteen journal sounds awesome!! I hope I win 😉
I LOVE journaling and all the reasons you point out are powerful reasons to do so. When I am consistent I am a better person, more in tune, grounded and connected. Great resource you share!
Thanks Valerie, I need to be a bit more focused and just journal more often. I love it!
I like this article so much! Journaling can be so beneficial for almost every aspect of our lives. It’s a great reminder to actually do it!
Thank you, Marybeth. I need this reminder too!
I know journals are good, but I don’t like my handwriting. Sometimes it is just so much easier to type things out. I wonder if Joel Osteen has created an electronic journal… Might be something good for folks like me.
I think that’s a great point, Lynda. For those who don’t love handwriting, I think online journaling is perfect. That is how blogging really started – an online journal. If you read the chapter and wrote your thoughts and reflections electronically I think this would be just as beneficial as if you’d hand wrote them.
What a great idea! Putting pen to paper makes all of our goals seem once step closer to being a reality! love this idea.
I love Joel Osteen! I need to journal again. I did it then got off track, but I really want to go back to doing it. Thank you for the wonderful giveaway 🙂
I’d like to read the accompanying book of the journal Break Out! 5 Keys to Go Beyond Your Barriers and Live an Extraordinary Life !
