2020 Word of the Year - January

I am so excited to talk about the word of the year for our little blog community.  Sometimes it is a struggle and I go back and forth and have so many options.  Then other years I am struggling to come up with one word.  But this year I felt God gave me the perfect word and I was just waiting for January to come around so we could roll it out.  In 2017 we had a real focus in May and did something positive in our 'Every Day in May' challenge.  In 2018 we were intentional and did something special in our 'Great Things in '18 Challenge'.  In 2019 we focused together on Surrendering various aspects of our lives to God with a monthly prayer focus.  I gave you a hint on Friday that our 2020 word started with a W and had 7 letters.  Did you guess what it was?

Well here it is

If you would like a printable of our word as a reminder, just click here.

First let me say, I am not a Bible Scholar.  I am not even close.  I am a girl who loves the Lord and loves sharing with you who also love Him.  So while I don't think anything I will share here will change your life, I do hope it helps us all to collectively focus and keep God in our daily thoughts.

When I was thinking of the word Worship I did some reading and researching about what others have had to say.  I thought it would be good to define it as we got started.  But, my oh my, it is such an encompassing word that I found it difficult to settle on just one definition.  So I combined a few of what I found and here is my thought as we use this as our focus for the year - Worship is always remembering God's worth.  So each month we will focus on how we can challenge ourselves to do just that. We will work on focusing on just how worthy God is in ALL situations.

I hope you will join in.  Over the course of the year I will give us a monthly prompt for us to focus on.  This month I encourage you to reflect and to really pay attention to if/when/how you are worshipping.  And, of course, worship can look so many different ways.....and it really is all about our hearts.

Well, are you in? Will you join us here for a year long focus on Worship?  I sure hope so!

Have a wonderful worshipful week!  I will see you back here on Wednesday!
