Finished!

I'm not very good at finishing projects so I am delighted to say that I finished two Christmas related projects.

Firstly I finished Mary Brack's Advent Words 2017 study and book.



And secondly I finished my December Daily.  At tthe beginning I was going to keep it going right through the month to December 31st.  But in the end decided to finish with Christmas Day.


The last page has the information we put online for the project Valerie, Mary & I are running through 2018.  It belongs here because we were discussing it in the last few days before Christmas.   If you missed it, the information is in my last blog post.

See you in 2018.

Thanks for joining me today.

Everyday Journals ~ Living Your Word of the Year

If you read my post about searching for a way to organise my life in a journal you won't be too surprised to hear that I have found a way forward with the help of two of my dear friends ~ Mary & Valerie.   We have joined together to help each other and anyone else who would like to join us in a group on Facebook: Everyday Journals ~ Living Your Word of the Year.

Do you choose a word for the year? Or does it choose you? When we ask God for a word for the year he gives us something that he wants us to work on, to include more of during the year? Do you know what your word for 2018 is yet?

Have you tried planners, bullet journals and diaries and found they don’t suit your lifestyle? Do you want a simple, completely personalized, no pressure way of journal keeping? Do you have lots of scraps of papers with your ideas written down but often lost in the detritus on your desk? Or do you file all your thoughts in your head and become overwhelmed with all the ideas and no place to flesh them out?

Would you like a more creative way to organise your word, your ideas, thoughts, prayers, events, or your projects all in one place? Let us introduce you to an Everyday Calendar Journal.

Through 2018, Valerie Sjodin, Mary Brack and I will be sharing insights through blog posts for keeping an Everyday Calendar Journal. We will be using the journal to record events, experiences and relationships; to explore our word’s meaning in visual and fun ways. It is our hope that you will make your journal your own, personalising it to make it a beautifully useful and valuable tool.

Watch for these hashtags on social media #livingyourword2018  #everydayjournals2018

Join us in our private Facebook group to find encouragement and support as we journal through 2018.

I look forward to seeing you there.
