Happiness Project – Gratitude Journal Day 13 – October 30, 2019

This week we are continuing the practice of journaling. Grab a notebook and for the next few days read the daily verse and journal question, then write your thoughts. Journaling can be a great way to “voice” or organize the jumble in our heart and mind to more clearly see God’s path for us.

Wednesday

Read: Philippians 3:8

” ⁸ What is more, I consider everything a loss because of the surpassing worth of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whose sake I have lost all things. I consider them garbage, that I may gain Christ ” (NIV Philippians 3:8)

Journal: Paul reminds us that we need to constantly focus on eternity to become one with Christ, and that everything else is “garbage.” To put this into perspective, we need to answer the following question: How important will the current major issues in our lives be in 5 or 10 years, or into eternity?  Discuss strategies that you can utilize daily to focus on eternity and not be distracted by the popular culture of today’s world.
