One Word

shelovesmagazine.com - Today's post:  "It's Not About Doing More, It's About One Word for 2013"

I did the One Word thing last year.  As I've written in previous posts, my word for 2012 was Moments

Our church asked us to take a picture of us with our One Word.  It ended up that picture day was on the day that I was on a makeup fast... I remember I was so embarrassed and ashamed of how I looked.... but... It was a Moment!

 This word has become so alive for me in many aspects 

God has taught me alot in this word

Moments are precious

Moments are not always big and emotional.  Honestly, for me, its the simple Moments that have and continue to be the most impactful to me.

It takes heart courage to live in this present Moment, trusting that the one who holds the next is bigger than me.

Good Moments will not last forever, so cherish them, receive them, enjoy them with everything.

Also, bad, hard and hurtful Moments will not last forever.. They will pass.

There is not a Moment that God is not with me

Fall walks

There is a gift in every Moment, if my eyes are open and willing to see it.

The Moments I try (so hard) to avoid in life, end up being the richest and life changing

There is Joy found in embracing the Moment, and receiving the heart of the one who gave it especially for me.

Psalm 90:12 Teach us to number our days that we might gain a heart of Wisdom.

As I move on to 2013, the word in my heart is 

Believe

Definition:  To have confidence in the truth, the existence, or the reliability of something, although without absolute proof that one is right in doing so.

I woke up yesterday, and one of the first things my eyes fell upon was a picture that one of my friends posted to Instagram.

I want to Believe in spite of facts.  I want to have an unshakable Faith and Trust in God's words.

Believe.  God, help me to believe with a simple heart.  Create in me a pure heart of Belief.  Blessed are the Pure in heart for they will inherit the Kingdom of God.

Here's to a year with a God who forgives and forgets my past.  A God who Loves me enough to take my hand and help me change.  Here's to a year with a God who is Hell bent on me becoming and walking as the woman He created me to be.  A God who is Limitless in Love and Power, and who has created me in His image with incredible potential.

Here's to a year where, by the Grace of God, I will throw off unbelief and choose to Believe, like a little child again.

BC snowmen.... Lame

Yikes.... I'm nervous already.

All Praise be to God who is able to do Exceedingly, abundantly, above all I could even ask or imagine, according to His power at work within me, and all the Glory goes to Him!
