In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. John 1:1
Set this year up as your best year ever by making the decision to begin with one word.
One word over the year can keep you focused.
One word over the year will keep you moving when you want to quit.
With one word over the year, God will meet you where you are, walk with you every day, and help you finish strong.
Choose a word that fires you up, speaks to your soul, and inspires you to get out of the little boat you are in and walk on water with Jesus.
Talk to God about your life, invite Him in to inspire you to love and good deeds. You can do this if you take a step of faith. Nothing happens without simple steps of faith repeated.
Finding a word is as simple as making a list, looking at it for a few days, adding a word, deleting a word if it’s not right, and asking God to inspire you with a word.
Here are a few words from last year from a few of my friends:
Listen
Courage
Guarantee
Purpose
Dedication
Focus
Seek
Trust
You will know you’ve selected the right word if it feels a bit risky. It may not juice anybody else up and that doesn’t matter — if it does you, then you’re set.
I wear my word stamped onto a key made by the good people at The Giving Keys, an inspiring “pay it forward” company. It is a constant reminder that God is changing my heart and walking with me.
So take a small step of faith – listen to God and pick a word – it begins a new beginning and that’s how God began – by choosing a Word.
Next week we will dig into a simple plan.

2021 was a rough one for me. The idea that 2022 could be my best ever seems ridiculous. I’ve heard that with God all things are possible. So, I trust You will guide me as I begin my year with You. Thank You.
