Thanks for the inspiration, Lisa for this post. This will be so much fun this year, exploring our words together.

Thanks Denise. Courage is part of my bible verse of the year. This verse jumped out to be since it contained the word GO but also courage. Joshua 1: 9

A simple but powerful word, isn’t it? It is so small I almost didn’t chose it but it kept chasing me, LOL Courage is a great word.

Marinate is a good word isn’t it Linda? Love serendipity too. I can feel its energy and delight. Thanks for sharing

so good to hear from you Joanne. I love playing with words and Lisa’s LAP inspired me. Go is a powerful but somewhat scary words too, Just this week just saying it made a difference in me deciding something. It turned out right too. God is so good!

LAMP is such a good acronym. I look forward to reading about your journey with “Go”, as I am sure to learn much from you. So glad I stopped here this morning. Many blessings in 2021~

My word is serendipity. I think. And because it’s so filled with delight and possibility and unknowns, I feel like I’m being let off the hook when it comes to planning.

Lisa’s keeping me in line and moving forward. And that’s a very good thing.

And so is GO!

LOVE it! God’s Word–even at its shortest–never comes back void (Isaiah 55:11). I’ve been contemplating the word “courage” for 2021; lo and behold Denise (below) has chosen the same! ‘Think that might be the affirmation I’ve been looking for.

Oh my goodness, Denise, that’s the word that’s been playing in my mind for 2021 also! Here’s another scripture for us as we step into 2021: “Be on your guard; stand firm in the faith; be courageous; be strong.” May those medical challenges become victories of courage and faith!

I feel it has been chosen for me because Joshua 1:9 has come up on my feed several times in the past few days. I feel I need to be courageous going forward this year as I am facing some medical challenges.
I love LAMP to help keep me focused. I will be searching for more verses that speak to me on courage going forward.
Jean I love your word Go and the 2 words that came to you from that word. I wish you much success going forward this year.
I really look forward to your posts each month.

I definitely had to marinate in my word this time. I’m still not sure where God wants to go with it…but it’s all SO fitting since my word is Uncertain. lol. I’m going to try to get my post up about it tomorrow. 

I love your word Go and that it stands for Grace Observed. I’m currently reading 40 Days of Grace by Paul David Tripp. I need to do a review of it soon so I’m reading it fast right now, but I’ll go back through it again slowly for Lent. God’s grace is what’s saving me in this season and I need to observe it more often! So glad you linked this with our Facebook group now and hope you’ll also link it at my blog on the 21st; it’s encouraging to read about your process and your word.

I like adding the M to LAP for we do Ned to do that as well while waiting on just the word God has for us. GO will surely take you in my directions. May He go with you each day.

Yes, God wants us all to get up and go for His purposes and His kingdom. May “go” bless you richly this year.
