Creating sacred writings

1.15.2015
|
Daily Grace

Journaling is an ancient way to reflect on the world around us, within us. Writing or drawing a few pages a day often opens up pathways to new thoughts, new insights and new energy. The pen is often the key that unlocks the door to a hidden world of peace, beauty and a renewed sense of being protected by a good, generous and gracious God.

What you put in your journal becomes your own personal sacred writings. Journal entries are sacred in the sense of being set aside for a holy purpose. That purpose is helping you become the very best person you can be as one created in the image of a creative and caring God.

This is taken from Journaling: Create your own sacred writings, a resource writing by Kathryn Haueisen that is available for free download in both English and Spanish from womenoftheelca.org.

"Rev. Elizabeth Eaton, the first female presiding bishop of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America, said that the key to being effective as a historic first and a leader is to remember that the work isn’t actually about you." (Sojourners, Jan. 13, 2021) pic.twitter.com/9y8f7BxbvT
