In the recent days and weeks I have been doing a lot of internal processing. I know that must sound silly, but I think that the new year has a way of bringing about reflections. After coming to a Word Of The Year, I have been spotting areas in my life that need to shine. I have been thinking through some of my life choices and evaluating them against the backdrop of the word SHINE.
While my word is shine I have also noticed that there are some areas that will still need the words from previous years! Each WOTY is not set on the shelf as we approach a new year yet it is all cumulative in making up who I am and who I desire to be.
In the past year I became lax on getting up in the morning and having my quiet time. I snuggled into the bed longer and then pushed time frames of what a productive morning looked like and would wait for the boys to come up stairs before I would venture from the bed. I have re-made a commitment to myself to wake early, go to the gym come home shower and then have quiet time. Tomorrow I start a new online bible study and I am eager to have Jeanne Oliver’s “Becoming: The Unfolding of You” be a backdrop for my heart in the coming weeks.
So as I have evaluated who I am and who I want to be I am eager to see where this year takes me!
