One Word 2013


As 2013 begins I have been challenged to choose ONE WORD to focus on this year. The word that came to mind over and over was EXAMPLE. Seems so strange…why didn’t I pick love or kindness? Why EXAMPLE?

I have 5 sweet children the Lord has entrusted to me, and as much as I wish they only saw me at my best I know this is not a reality. Sadly, whether my EXAMPLE is good or bad my children see it, hear it and feel it. For this reason I have been convicted in my need to be diligent to pay attention to my EXAMPLE.

I have also realized a need to be aware of what EXAMPLES I am giving my time and attention to. Are my friendships beneficial EXAMPLES? Am I watching and reading things that are profitable EXAMPLES? Am I seeking to follow the ultimate EXAMPLE, Jesus Christ, with my whole-heart? These were convicting questions. So now, am I brave enough to walk this path with honesty?

Welcome 2013.
