Are Christians Sinning with Vision Boards?

Sisters in Christ, Come on in and grab a cup of tea. Let's talk about ... Are Christians Sinning With Vision Boards?


It's that time of the year. Time to make memories, plan and make new goals. Many people use this time of the year to have Vision Board Parties. A Vision Board Party normally is a party where people have a bunch or magazines, poster board, color pencils and they just chat about and share their hopes and desires with those in the room. That has been my experience with Vision Board parties. 

I don't know about some of these questionable occult type of Vision Parties but here is the reality anyone can pervert anything. Now if you are into the occult I think everything you do would be perverted in reality.

Many Christian women I personally know do not have those type of Vision Board Parties. They use these type of parties to minister to women who do not participate in traditional church activities. They use these parties as a Women outreach activity to fellowship with different type of women.

Every year people tend to reflect and renew their personal plans and goals. Many Christians take this time to reflecting on what God wants you to do in their ministry and personal life. Some people will even use January as a time to fast and hear from the Lord.

Vision Board? Is it some sort of occult practice, repackaged? Some Christians feel that making. a Vision Board makes one focus on themselves in a vain way. Some people even see Vision Boards as a form of idol worship and not focusing on God.

As Christians you know that your heart is everything. If you have issues worshipping idols, or struggle being vain maybe you can't participate in creating a Vision Board. Don't do anything that will make you sin. 

However for everyone else, I'm not a "Scary Christian" and I consult with the Lord before all decisions.It is important if you feel making a Vision Board will cause you to sin, you should not make one because you can't handle it. But as a creative person I read Habakkuk 2:2-

Then the LORD replied: “Write down the revelation and make it plain on tablets so 
that a herald may run with it.

I personally do not see making a Vision Board or writing down goals as slight to the Lord. As Christians we seek the Lord with all our decisions and ideas and we wait for the guidance of the Holy Spirit.

However if you feel you are sinning and you don't understand how God gives you goals and the desires of your heart that are align with His Will, then you shouldn't participate in such events. Search your heart and don't do anything that may tempt you to sin.
