A couple of years ago we were studying Keith Drury’s book “with Unveiled Faces, ” which is about the spiritual disciplines. In the book he wrote about journaling as a spiritual discipline, which I could not understand how he got idea that journaling could be one of those. After we were done with the book, I did not think about it till Dale and I took the girls to Indiana Wesleyan University for the college preview weekend. While we were there, Dale and I met Dr. Drury and we had a chance to talk to him. I asked him about this idea of journaling as a spiritual discipline. He explained that there are people who like to talk and tell people their thoughts and others who like to write them down. At that time, I still did not understand the whole thing about journaling until my mother got sick. Then, it got easier to write things down than to tell other people what I was going through. I think it was that I really did not want other people to stress out on what I was going through and some people acted like they were getting tired of it. So I start journaling my thoughts here. I have heard from people who received a blessing because of my journaling. So all I can say is, “Now I understand.”
I Think I Got It!
