Have you ever heard of a journaling Bible? I had, but the only journaling Bibles I had seen involved simply writing in the margins and that's something I already do. It wasn't all that exciting.
Then I realized folks were actually creating art in the margins of their Bibles with how hymns or verses moved them.
It's amazing.
Wha-bam! There you have it.
A journaling Bible has major room in the margins aka a notetaker's dream but not only is there room for notes but you can create masterpieces in those margins.
I first discovered this through Valerie Wiener's Instagram:

Isn't that beautiful?
She led me to see other folks' Instagrams and Facebook feeds.

If you haven't seen my Instagram feed lately, I've been cramming it with giveaways. I apologize in advance and I promise to beautify it in the very near future :) I just really want to start the Erskine baby stock right this minute...I can't help it :P
Back to the Journaling Bible!
I also joined a Facebook Journaling Bible group which is filled to the brim with beautiful inspiration.
I joined and it felt like God was blessing me as soon as I hit that "join" button.
This picture was posted by the group moderator (and awesome artist) Shanna Noel shortly after I became a member of the group.
The #travelingbible will basically be a gorgeous, inspiring Bible that will be carried across the globe.
My favorite book in the Bible is Hebrews and I cannot wait to add some art in those margins :)
Speaking of which, as soon as I saw Valerie's gorgeous newsfeed filling with colorful margins, I did a total impulse buy and bought one. It got lost in the mail (THE HORROR) but Amazon, being amazing as always, quickly resent a new one. I'll hopefully have it this Tuesday and it will be perfect timing for my upgrade sequence to a crew commander. Please pray over me and send me well wishes!
These are beautiful!
