Ringing in 2014 with Purpose


 Whew!! What a ride 2013 has been!!
It doesn't seem real that the time once again has come to ring in another new year....
But here it is and 2014 is just days away.
This year my one word the Lord spoke to me is "purpose"
Two years ago it was "endure".....
This past year is was "apply".....
And now for 2014.....
"PURPOSE"

I endured many changes and lessons in 2012....
I applied many of my lessons in 2013.....
So why the word purpose? I ask.

This new year I am to purpose in my heart many things....
To continue to love un conditionally....
To forgive the way my daddy God forgives me daily.....
To walk my road without wavier......
To see  beauty through the ashes......
To reach for those who seem to be unreachable....
To extend grace at all times....
Show mercy without a price......

To be a witness and a testimony to those hurting.....
To show comfort in the worst of times and joy in the best.....
To wait and listen for my daddy God's voice in every area of my life. 

"Purpose ".........
To be more like Christ and less of me !
Do you have a one word for 2014?


 Merry Christmas and a Blessed New Year to you all!!!!
Stacey

2 Thessalonians 3:16

16 Now may the Lord of peace Himself give you peace always in every way. The Lord be with you all.
