One Word Thoughts

"There is a reason why we say, “Get One Word for the year…but be careful.” As soon as you discover your word, the battle will begin. It will initiate a process of teaching, developing, refining, and molding. God will use your word as a light and a mirror – illuminating your path and revealing things that need to change. It facilitates a great journey of highs and lows all designed to make you into the person you are created to be.

It has been our experience that God quickly reveals His plans for the year regarding your One Word. That word (be it a discipline, fruit of the Spirit, character trait, or attribute of God) will brand you for the year! So discover your One Word for the year and share it with others! It might just change your life! "

Do you have your one word yet?  I think I finally narrowed mine down.  I believe the word God laid on my heart for this year is 'intentional.'  It's the word that keeps coming back, over and over.  If you have a word, please share.  

Come Alive

What makes you come alive?  

Go do it, and make a difference!

The Acid of Over-Activity

The acid of over-activity eats holes in our souls. From those holes leaks the cry of the calling that never quite happened. 

We said yes to so much that we missed what I call our Best Yes assignments — simply because we didn’t heed the warning of the whispers within us begging to reassess and breathe. ~Lysa TerKeurst

Making Changes

A week ago, I removed Facebook from my phone. It was strange at first, but it was the best decision I have made in awhile. I check my personal FB page maybe once a day now. Honestly, I don't really miss it. I do realize how much time FB can take away from my day, and those are precious moments I cannot get back to live life on purpose, to love those around me, to help someone, and to have face to face conversations. 

What Is chaining you down, taking too much of your time away from living your life purpose out? What steps can you take this week to change that habit?
