Come, all you who are thirsty, come to the waters
Isaiah 55:1a
Here we are with just a couple days left in 2014. Are you a resolution maker? Do you keep them? I don’t usually make new resolutions, but I do reevaluate where I’m at, where I want to be and new routines I want to get into to. I do this in September (beginning of the school year) and New Years.
Last year I was presented with the idea of choosing a word for the year. I thought it was an excellent idea to almost have a theme to live by. My word for 2013 was “Real” and I think I did pretty good with staying real in my relationships and how I dealt with life.
As I’ve sat back and tried to hear what God wants me to focus on for 2014, I was stumped. Then I stumbled onto the new song by Casting Crowns “Thrive. Have a listen.
I was so impacted the message of this song that I quickly pulled out my Bible and looked Isaiah 55:1 that talked about who is thirsty and coming to the waters. I am thirsty for more of The Lord and I want to surrender 2014 to Him and whatever it brings.
So my word and theme song for 2014 is “Thrive”. Thriving in my relationship with The Lord. Thriving in where He has placed me to minister to others. Thriving in how I impact the world in His name
I encourage you to listen to what word The Lord wants for you to embrace for 2014. Once you know, share it with your friends and comment here, write it down, journal it!
Many blessings for the coming year!
