Yes, 2015 has arrived. Quietly for me. Slipping in without fanfare, bells, or whistles. And I am perfectly OK with that. More than OK. Really just the way I like it.
So here we are. A new year. Which for many people means a new set of resolutions - or goals if you prefer. For the second year in a row, for me it means a new word. A new focus for the year.
Until the morning of January 1, I thought that word was going to be 'Pray'. It was a good enough word and aligned well with some thoughts I had been having recently. Pray seemed like a nice choice.
But that morning the word 'SEEK' presented itself. Staring me almost quite literally in the face. And at that moment I felt the Spirit nudging me towards Matthew 6:33.
Something clicked into place. And quite at the last moment- 2015 became a year to SEEK.
A year to Seek: Joy, Love, Knowledge, New Experiences, Contentment, a spirit of Gratitude, Peace, Wisdom, Friendship, and Health.
But first and foremost to SEEK God. His kingdom. His righteousness. His will. A closer relationship with Him.
Knowing that by doing this - all these other things will be given to me as well. According to His promise.
So this year, I will SEEK.
SEEK God's will for me. SEEK His best for me. SEEK to serve and encourage others. SEEK to be the very best me - the woman God intends for me to be.
