Every year I ask God for a word for the year. Last year my word was courageous. Although a little out of my comfort zone - well, the truth is it was a lot out of my comfort zone - I learned valuable lessons from God. Last year's word was a spring board for this year's word.
GIVE. As I spent time with God asking how this word will work, He opened up endless possibilities. I sometimes feel like I can't keep up with God and all He shows me.
So on January 1st I started the GIVE project. Every day I will give in some way. This will take on many forms from words of encouragement to time and resources. I am trying to daily be open to whatever possibility God has in store for me.
I am amazed already. One of the first things I have noted is that as I focus more on what God has in store for the day, the less I focus on me.
I think I am in for a wild ride this year with all that God has is store for me.
