Many of you know my mom. That lady is the best. A few years ago, she spoke to me about having a word for the year. She told me to pray for God to reveal a word or something specific to keep in mind throughout the coming year.

So, I did just that.

Last year, my word was patience. Many of you know my story and how God blessed me tremendously through praying and fighting for patience {haha even now when I talk about it, happy tears still make an appearance}. The year before that, my word was perspective. Keeping my perspective on God in that particular span of 365 days ended up being incredibly important.

Eighteen days into 2017, my word has been made very clear:

Obedience.

I see it almost every single day.

{This is a great platform to spread God’s awesomeness, so let’s do something awesome. How does a quick group prayer sound?}

Please pray that God gives not only me, but every person who reads this the strength to be obedient to His call in 2017.

I pray you know that God is in control of this year, next year, and every single year after that. I pray God gives you the guidance, wisdom, and strength you need for everything you are going through right now and will go through this year.

If you pick a word for the year, let me know! I will be praying for you and the unbelievably AWESOME things God is going to do in your life in 2017. Have hope. God is the bomb, and His plans for you are the bomb.com.

All you have to do is give Him the reins.

‘”For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.”‘ Jeremiah 29:11
