Journaling
Journaling is an excellent way to record and process what God has spoken to us. Without writing it down, you may forget those promises and some very important lessons! While journaling is a very personal time with the God, you may want to share some of your daily journaling with your EQUIP Group or mentors. Through discussion, you may be able to look deeper into what God is speaking to you, gain new insight and even encourage others.
