I mentioned that I was unsure about having a word or theme for the year. I prayed about it some more and felt the Lord was giving me a word. But, it was a word that I didn't know I wanted to focus on. :) I thought it was actually too elementary for me! HA! (doesn't that show the ugliness of my pride?) That may be exactly why He wanted me to have this very word! I started the year off memorizing Isaiah 43:18-19.
