My Word of the Year for 2024

If you haven't chosen a Word of the Year for 2024 yet, no need to worry! There's still time to pick your word. I discovered the Word of the Year concept in 2018 when several friends had chosen one, sparking my curiosity about the hype. I found that having a Word of the Year provides a growth focus for the year. The word is meant to represent a central way you are depending on God in the year to come. It helps you determine who you want to become by the end of the year. When you have a word of the year, it helps you to be intentional about how you spend the hours, days, and months of the year.

What to Do with the Impossible

Our family loves time at the beach. Not only do we have lots of fun, but we also learn some valuable lessons. One of the lessons we learned several years ago was “Nothing is impossible with God.” It all began with a neon golf ball. The day before we left to go to our friend’s beach house, I handed each child a list for packing. It was all the necessary clothes, a swimsuit, a beach towel, a toothbrush, etc. The kids did great packing their suitcases. Nathan decided to add in a few extra toys from home. One of those toys was a neon golf ball. Micaela and Nathan both really enjoyed diving for items that summer so I knew it had to be for diving.
