PASSION is my word. The biggest obstacles I face are being distracted by other “good” things and giving up because it’s not natural or easy or I fear what other people think. I can only do this with God’s supernatural power!

Comfortable is what my life has become. Which I must say is good thing, normally. However, “Change” elicits all kinds of fear and anxiety in my mind; I am adopting the statement “I refuse to remain unchanged” from a popular Christian song. The thought of being in the same place for the rest of my life caused even more fear. I am taking a stand to move out of my comfort zone and into God’s will and guidance for me. The Change has already begun and I’m ready to face the new challenge. God is awesome!

Fear is always my inhibitor. With my word for the “Courageous,” I will need to fight fear on a daily basis to achieve all that I want to do for the Lord and myself this year.

My word for the year is “Anew”. My biggest roadblock is letting other peoples problems becoming higher in priority than my own. I hope to learn to make decisions to do what I know God wants me to do, instead of letting situations take control.

My word is dilgence. When I am about to waver in any situation, work, diet, family, relationships, exercise, prayer, self doubt, attitude, etc. all Ineed to do is think of my word and It will bring forth some clarity and help me to improve my effort. Slow but sure!

I would have to say my one word is “humble”. I need to humble myself more. We can grow more as Christians if we humble ourselves more and listen to God, instead of being all in the moment. Sit back, relax, and listen to Him guide us where we should be in our lives, where Hewants to go and what He asks us to do.Humble ourselves like a little child and listen to Him as a child does their parent.

My word is “PRAY” and my biggest roadblock will be busyness/not making enough time for concentrated prayer. I know when the best time for me to pray is, and it’s not first thing in the morning or late at night. It’s during the day–but that’s also when I get the busiest and most productive. I have to stick to my priority and make sure I schedule and FOLLOW the time I have scheduled for prayer. I pray to God all day but I need the alone time of concentrated prayer because it’s what I’ve been lacking for a while.

My word is “listen”. God has impressed on me that I need to LISTEN to Him and other people, not just TALK!

My word is “victory”. I had a short list of words and looked each one up in the dictionary. Victory spoke to me because of the many defeats I have faced in life. This year I want to give my best and be my best for God, my family, and my community. My biggest roadblock is my pride.

I think my biggest roadblock is procrastination. I procrastinate at starting everything because I don’t like to fail, so if I don’t start it I won’t have a chance to fail. My One Word is Patience and I don’t think I will be able to procrastinate with this word because I will have situations every day that will challenge me.
