My Word for 2021
This is my 5th year doing 1 Word for 1 Year. Each year the process of deciding on a word has been a bit different. If you want to read about how each word was chosen each year, you can find those posts here. This year my word came quickly and unexpectedly. It was early […]
1 Word | 1 Year: Looking Back, Looking Forward
It’s finally “the most wonderful time of the year!” (at least for me) I LOVE the last week of the year and the first week of the next – planning, thinking, reflecting, organizing, preparing. It’s what I thrive on and what comes naturally to me. If it doesn’t for you, no worries! Keep reading for […]
My Word for 2020
We’re only 10 days in to the New Year, and I’m already loving my word! Of course, I started thinking about it here and there back in October. It was late November or early December when I knew for sure “nourish” was it. So, I’ve been anticipating its influence for a few weeks now. If […]
Abundance Starts Small
Abundance is my One Word for One Year this year. God continues to use the natural world to teach me much about this word. Here are my key observations from the summer: #1 – Abundance is natural when the conditions are right. #2 – Abundance does not discriminate. #3 – Abundance is not under my […]
Abundance in Nature and in Life
Abundance is my One Word for One Year this year. As I wrote before, I didn’t choose this word for a particular reason. In fact, I had a different word picked out.

Anticipation in Life and with Jesus
The 4th of July rivals Christmas for the favorite holiday in our house. It’s been my husband’s favorite, hands down, for a long time. In fact, it’s how he remembers the date of our anniversary. In his words, “We got married the last day of the month when I get to blow things up!” As […]
My Word for 2019
You know that phrase, “The best laid plans”? That’s my story for my One Word for One Year this year. Some of you may have read at the end of 2018 that I planned to continue my word from 2018 (grace) into this new year. I knew there was still much to dig into related […]
Internalize Psalm 119 in 10 Minutes a Day
2019 is finally here! Well, almost, anyway. I’ve anticipated 2019’s arrival for two years now, which probably sounds a bit odd. Let me explain. From the time I was a young girl, I have loved Psalm 119. It occupies the center of the biblical text and its sheer length makes it a novelty. Every section […]
Reflecting On A Summer That Didn’t Go As Planned
Have you ever had a season of life where nothing went as planned or hoped? That was my summer! I had plans to play with my boy and enjoy long daylights. Instead, I spent much of it inside in a prone position. I hoped for a lightness to encompass these days where schedules are more […]
