Writing to track our progress

Reading Numbers 33, I’m reminded how important it is to track and record our progress. I like to write down my thoughts on what I’m reading. I don’t often write about other things as I should, but there are quite a few benefits to journaling, so I should probably make that a higher priority. I’m so thankful for God’s word and for the saints who wrote it.

‘At the Lord’s direction, Moses kept a written record of their progress. These are the stages of their march, identified by the different places where they stopped along the way. ‘
Numbers 33:2
