We can all agree 2020 was one heck on a year. I feel like I was always in survival mode just trying to keep my head above water with all the crazy that went on + I didn’t want to loose my lid.
I feel like even though it was crazy I never really took the time to fill myself with what I needed most. I was using God as a safety blanket not my safety shelter.
I wasn’t even going to pick a word for this year. It’s not really my thing honestly. Then at New Year’s I was listening to Passion 2021. Of course it was going to change me. Priscilla Shier was preaching on Abiding. To seep into Him. To steep. She used a tea analogy and I love my tea so it has stuck. Really with what I surround myself with is what I am going to turn into. My source needs to be Him. It’s not the news, it’s not the crazy people on social media. I cannot marinate on those things because that is not who I want to be and it’s not who I am.
instead, in 2021… I am going to Abide in Him. To stay in constant contact. constantly filling myself with Him, His word + others who fill me up + reflect Him. Honestly in just two months it has completely changed me than what 2020 made me. I hate that I lost that last year. I was with Him but I wasn’t With Him. Ya know?
Do you have a word of the year? Share in the comments!
XOXO,
