I chose this word because for my life situation far as not finishing school and being where I don’t want to be in my life, meaning my life goals and dreams. I can honestly say that I’m afraid to pursue and I don’t take the proper initiative to move forward but I know what I want for my life, and thats to be a good husband, father, and to be successsful spiritual and financially. I have a wife and two children and I want better for them and myself. My one word “PERSEVERANCE”. I plan to use this word in 2018 to strive for greater, not let certain things hinder me or anything to distract me (people, things, sins, etc.). I have motivation for a lot things but certain things I’m to relaxed about it or even too comfortable/ok with it, when deep down inside im really not. I show a lot of strength because of my boys and the students who look up to me as a teacher. I always try to better those around me but, I may be neglecting myself. I want 2018 to be a change or starting process for me because I can honestly see the light at the end and it seems so far away. I have to find a way to get there faster, but all honestly it’s various ways to get there, my struggle is choosing one. I feel God hasn’t truly affirmed this word for me yet (or at least I think he haven’t) but I honestly think this may be the word for me.
