Are
you ready to change your life with just one word, one verse? This resonated with me and made me begin my search. Let's get started!!!
At the end of last December, I was inspired and encouraged to choose a Word and Verse to focus on for this year after reading a Book "My One Word" by Michael Ashcraft and Rachel Olsen. I have never done this before, I thought It was more than a good idea, It was
an answer from God. Because He is my father, He knows me and knows what my
heart was looking for.
This search required quiet time with God and paying attention to his voice. On
the 29th of December God gave me my Word, my verse and my songs for 2018. It is
amazing how God is working in my life and I think one change in my spiritual
discipline can open new dimensions of grace and power.
A week into the New Year, the practice of applying my Word and my Verse for
2018 to my life has been easy, but I know that there is a long journey ahead
(11 months y 24 days), this will require constant discipline and perseverance
and I know It will be a daily search for God, who will help me and will give me
support to continue when I feel like giving up. (Phil 3:14; Psalm 121).
According to The Journal of Clinical Psychology after one week, 25% of
New Years resolutions are abandoned and after 6 months less than half are kept.
So I decided to write down my word and my verse in several places where I
would see them every day, for example: On my bedroom wall, on the mirror in the bathroom,
in my bible, in my journal, somewhere in the kitchen, on my phone and on social
media, and I decided to follow through with one small action every week.
Today I encourage you to look for your Word and Verse for this year If You
don't already Have One!
"Teach us to realize the brevity of life, so that we may grow in wisdom" Psalm 90:12
"Choose your word, keep your word now, number your days now; and make then count by developing a heart of wisdom this year" (excerpt from My One Word)
2018
My word is : PATIENCE
My verse is : PSALM 46 :10
