Download, save and print documents listed below and keep them in a folder/binder for easy access. Use the RL exercise daily, not only to express feelings and process pain, but to give insight and next steps for better spiritual stewardship. The RL sentence structure is helpful to initiate daily journalling. We suggest that you make multiple copies of the single worksheet and to keep the supporting documents (Boundaries Define Us and Seven Desires of Every Heart) close by your journaling and or devotional area.
