The end and the beginning.

Taken from my old yellow journal. The date and time of this post is the date and time that it was originally written.


I had wanted to write something so I could wrap this journal up and go onto the next one. What should I write? What is worth recording? The next journal will be different. I would like to also begin recording the day's events.

Today, Becca and I went to Mickey's Massive Burritos, then to Culvers, where the Alero hit the Geo.

What ministry do I have to record? What should I think about?
Maybe I already thought about?

Instead of just recording sporadic thoughts and commentaries I wanna record action. I want to record what I did. But what action is more important than ministry?

Let me ask my reader this question. If you wrote a journal entry of the ministry you did today, how long would it be?




The blog entries that I will make will be from my new journal, as is. They will be separated from the rest of the entry by the horizontal breaks, and they will be dated and timed for when the actual entry was penned, not when I typed them out on the web. They are for you to read, critique, comment on, and be encouraged by. Maybe. Until the next post,

Eric

Good idea. I am glad to see this new journal going for a really good use. It is a very good idea and it would be a good thing for me to do and also for other people to do. I need to record more often prayers, ministry, and even the Bible verses that God's spoken to me about and what He spoke. I am encouraged by your spiritual growth.

Kevin,

You have just read a transition from one journal to the other, and hopefully new things will be recorded in the new one that weren't before. You see, I realized that even though I may journal comments and thoughts on a bible verse, it's not much, and I'm not doing that much. When I tried to write a journal entry of the day's ministry, not much came out. And it was an awakening.
