This year I embarked on a journey with my new friend and blogger Alece from Grit and Glory. The journey was to find that one word that I wanted to focus on for 2011. That one word that I would live by.
My word was truth.
I’m sure I could have done better, but I’m pretty happy with the way I lived out that one word.
I spoke truth.
I lived truth.
I wrote truth.
I read truth.
I spoke truth that caused people to question their walk in faith. I lived out my faith for others to see my actions and not just my words. I wrote truth through this blog that touched the lives of many. I read the truth of God’s Word that not only comforted me in times of need, but rebuked me just the same.
I would love to say the results of one word were all positive, but it didn’t always turn out that way.
I heard truth regarding details of the death of my father that brought more heartbreak. I had friends and walk away because they weren’t happy with the truth I put in front of them.
Jesus said we would be persecuted because of him, and sometimes speaking the truth can be lonely, but I wouldn’t take it back.
I can’t wait to share my One Word 2012 with you and I encourage you to think about that one word that can change your life in the coming year.
