Is it okay to highlight or write in the Bible?

I want to use a marker in the Bible for bible journaling, but I'm concerned that it could be a sin to do so. Do any of you use a highlighter or write in the bible?

The Bible does not directly address writing or highlighting references in the Bible. Revelation 22:18 only addressed adding to the content of the book of the prophecy. Highlighting does not do any harm or add to the contents of your Bible, so it is not a sin.
