When you talk about discernment of prayer over the loss of your mom, it made me think of a time when I was fourteen and on my first mission. I prayed over the health of my dad. He had MS; he was in a wheelchair. It was bad. I prayed that God would heal my dad and keep him safe. I was so angry at God for not fixing my dad. It took about thirty odd years for me to realize that while he did not “heal” my dad. My dad lived thirty plus years with MS. It was once he died that I realized God did answer my prayers- but dad and I did not use our time well. My reason for writing this is sometimes we learn his purpose decades later. I feel your grief and I know that you are wholly and completely Loved. ❤
Exactly! I was thinking that as I was watching. My brain just works that way like a squirrel going from topic to topic so other faith journals are too structured for me and don’t work. This one seems so cool!
I watched your video and immediately bought this book and I just received it. I cried when I opened it because it was so beautiful that they prayed over it and put the date they prayed on a card with a verse which means so much to me. I got the dark green linen cover and its beautiful. Thank you for this video!
I am creating my first prayer/study journal this year :) I mean I have "journaled" through my faith walk before but never actually have a space for my journal (something I can constantly go back to to see a "year" in prayer/bible study).
Love the video, by the way! I woke up in the middle of the night and decided to journal until I get tired e enough to go back to bed, this video was upload at the perfect time, for me! Thanks!
🏃🏻♀️ So so encouraging and so many ideas! Thank you for sharing this. I’ve loved the idea of the growth book but it seems so intimidating - until now. Seeing how you’ve used it in so many different ways makes it feel like a completely doable tool/resource!
Awe thank you! Definitely don’t be intimidated! There’s no rules for how you must use it. Take notes and write things down and use the growth guides and sections when and how it makes sense to you!
I absolutely loved this video and had to order a growth book! I think the small bits of structured area (like the table of contents) but the overall unstructured-ness of the rest of the book feels like it will be great for how my brain works! 🎉
🏃♀️🏃♀️🏃♀️🏃♀️… and I don’t even like to run! 😂. What a great journal. I have been using a verse mapping journal, but this one is even more in depth!
Ohhh! That is a great idea about putting page numbers to correspond to where you took notes on the book you read. I am going to incorporate that into my next Growth Book!
I remember seeing the original review when you had just received it and before you started writing in it ✍🏼 I loved this review after you had finished writing in it. Now I really want one !!! I’m starting life group at church tonight and I signed up for the leadership life group. And I’m so excited for it that I want to order the John Maxwell leadership Bible and get a special journal for taking notes and special things for this season of life group. This would be so perfect !!
🏃 I like that book but I mix my sermon notes and study notes with my normal journal so it is like my complete life in one book. But I love what you did.
🏃♂️ I thoroughly enjoyed this video. I just ordered my second “Growth” journal. I love these journal and how it supports your spiritual journey. I love how creative you are in yours. This walk through of your journal was so nice. Thank you for sharing. ☺️
Thank you so much for introducing me to this awesome product. This is exactly what I was wanting for my bible journaling for the first time. I recently purchased the MIDORI notebooks (2) for bible journaling they should be arriving in a few days. However, I luckily ran across this video at work and listened to it throughout the day. lol -I guess I get the runners emoji symbol!! Anyway, thank you so much for this product review if I could design a journal for what I had in mind this is it!!
added note. I bought some of there other goodies and 3 of their books. Prices are great! The colors are beautiful! Even good for men too. Definitely everyone check them out!
My Growth Roots Co journal is arriving this week by Tuesday. Honestly I’m praying that it comes tomorrow so I can make my leadership life group the first entry in it. I ordered the Lagoon color and some post it notes. I’m so excited for it to arrive.
I use a wet fountain pen and it doesn’t bleed. Only thing I’ve found is stamp ink like distress and archival bleed to the other side. I’d use pigment ink if you use stamps. I love love mine though.
I’m watching g this video before work and it’s inspiring me to get after it more with my faith journaling. Is that Bible color code chart on your website?
I got a lot of inspiration from you for how I'd like to continue in my Growth book. I am curious, do you still use a "war binder" or has your "faith journal" taken the place of this? Do they serve the same purpose for you? Thank you 🙂
Thank you! Yes my growth book is essentially my faith journal / war binder; my old war binder is pretty much documentation now of that season in my life 💛
Wow! I just love how you put your journal together. So pretty. You have a beautiful penmanship. TFS. 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰 Question:. What if I don't go to church can I use Joyce Meyers sermons that I listen to on regular basis? P.P.S. I'm sorry to hear about your mom.b When did you lose her? I also lost my mom in 2017 and it still hurts to talk about it.😢😢🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃
Thank you! I think it’s fine to listen to any church sermons on a regular basis but always recommend being plugged into a local church with people who can be an in-person community for you. I lost her in September 2021. I’m so sorry for your loss. It’s so hard to lose our moms 💛
I didn’t even realize that the flower and the word “abide “ wAs something you added. I would have been cool if the coffee stain was on the pages and not the cover. What kind of gel pen did you use on the linen cover?
The church I go to is nondenominational but the network is called Acts 29. They have churches all over and you may have one near you; you can look on their website 💛
Can you add the link to purchase this journal. The link you have included is for a three pack? I just want ‘one’ just like the one that you have. Thanks so much 😊
The shop’s link is in the description too; it’s growthrootsco.com ☺️ (the three pack listed is the inserts I use for my daily journaling; I list them in every video)
@@MyAbidingJournal Oh okay! I understand now. Thanks for this link. I will certainly purchase a journal soon. Love your channel. God Bless you sis ! Hugs 🤗 ❤️😀
I have a really old handed lettering video here on my channel that might help. Varying styles and sizes and colors of what your writing helps to give it more interest. And practicing hand lettering (an art form) helps to improve your handwriting. There’s lots of free practice sheets on the internet

I love that it’s all inter-mixed. That’s what happens to a lot of my notes.

I enjoyed this video. Beautiful bible study notes.
I loved the way you showed how to intermix church with bible study. I always thought they should be separated but going to try this thanks!
🏃🏻♀️

🏃♂🏃♀🏆this was really helpful. I just got a growth book, and this added more to the excitement of beginning this new journey. Thank you!
Oh and thanks for the tip with the white gel pen on the post it’s. That really gives a nice contrast to the uniquely colored post it’s.
You're so welcome. I love white gel pen on colored paper!
🏃such a fun walkthrough. Thanks for sharing.

Lovely

Thanks for sharing :) I'll have to experiment more with different pens. by the way, I love your youtube username!
Have you rolled out the faith-based tier on your Patreon yet? I’ve been so busy I haven’t been on Patreon in awhile.
Not yet but it’s coming soon! The move has delayed me a bit but I’ll announce it when it’s ready 💛

@@MyAbidingJournal I agree. I don't really have any good churches around me. But thanks. 🙏
I didn’t even realize that the flower and the word “abide “ wAs something you added. I would have been cool if the coffee stain was on the pages and not the cover. What kind of gel pen did you use on the linen cover?
Just a white gel pen and used my foil quill pen to add the gold details
🏃♀️ 🏆
What is the blue pen you used? Love the vibrant hue. 🙂
Probably a mild liner highlighter or a “le pen” brand fine liner
Great video! You inspired me to order a Growth Book right away! Do you have a promo code for these?
Thank you! Unfortunately they do not currently do affiliate partners so I do not have a code for growth roots co :/
I really need to find a church like yours. Can you share your denomination?
The church I go to is nondenominational but the network is called Acts 29. They have churches all over and you may have one near you; you can look on their website 💛
