Ready to dive into Trace The Word? Here's a quick guide to get you started on tracing your way through scripture!

Step 1: Gather Your Tools
First, pick your tracing tools. You can use pencils, pens, colored pencils, or even markers. If you’re worried about bleed-through, especially with markers, place a blank sheet between the pages to protect the next one.

Step 2: Find Your Verse
Whether you’re tracing from Genesis or another book, pick a verse that speaks to you. With Trace The Word, you’ll be working with a light gray outline of each letter, which is perfect for tracing.

Step 3: Start Tracing
Slowly trace over the light gray letters, letting your hand guide your focus on each word. As you trace, take your time to reflect on the verse, allowing the meaning to sink in. Tracing is more about the journey than the speed!

Step 4: Add Personal Notes
Leave some space for your own notes or sketches. Jot down thoughts, reflections, or anything that stands out to you as you trace.

Step 5: Reflect and Repeat
Once you’ve traced your first verse, take a moment to reflect on it. You might find that the act of tracing deepens your understanding of the scripture.

That’s it! Happy tracing, and enjoy connecting with the Word in a fresh, hands-on way.
