“And the LORD answered me, and said, Write the vision, and make it plain upon tables, that he may run that readeth it.”
Habakkuk 2:2

The Message
Habakkuk had spent a whole chapter arguing with God about everything wrong with his country. This is the answer he got back. Not an explanation — an instruction. Write it down.
The word behind “tables” means tablets, not furniture — stone or clay, the most permanent surface a man had. And “that he may run that readeth it” means make it legible at speed: plain enough that someone moving past can take it in without stopping.
Which is the whole case for keeping one of these. What you write down outlasts the mood you wrote it in.
The Mark
The XA monogram on the front, black on matte white, the cross standing between the two letters and doing the work of both. Nothing else on the cover. It reads as a notebook first and says what it is second.
The Book
A hardcover built to be carried and written in rather than shelved. The pages are perforated, so one can come out clean and be handed to somebody.

It pairs with XA Daily, which has a journal built into it — the same habit on paper, for the days you would rather not reach for a phone.
