Word of the Year 2020
It’s a New Year.
With it comes a new word.
Each year I choose a word to focus on throughout the year.
Last year my word was resolve. (read that post here)
It came from 1 Corinthians 2:2:
“For I resolved to know nothing while I was with you, except Jesus Christ and Him crucified.” (NIV)
Paul was explaining to the Christians in Corinth that he wasn’t interested in material things or fame. He wanted only to share the gospel and lead people to Christ. His only focus was Christ and the importance of the crucifixion.
I spent a good portion of my study and prayer time seeking to better know and understand who Christ is.
I also focused on putting Him first in every situation.
It was hard.
There were times when I failed, had to repent, and start again but I learned so much.
I learned first hand just how much Christ loves us and just how close to us He is, if we will just pay attention.
It was a year of huge growth I am eternally grateful for.
When I was praying and looking through Scripture for 2020’s word I came across John 8:25-30.
