Do you choose a theme word for your year? I think mine is going to be “now.” I’d love to hear yours, well, now.
When I run coaching retreats, I include a “One Little Word” exercise. We listen for where God is calling next, distill it down into a word, and then create a visual reminder of the word, because who doesn’t love a bit of arts and crafts?
But it doesn’t need to be that complicated. Just listen for your word, or discuss it tonight at you’re New Year’s Gathering.
Everyone at my last client retreat remembered their word from the previous year, so apparently something is sticking.
So what’s your word? It works best if you choose something positive and hopeful that can grow with you. Or just something that resonates with you that you can discover later what it all means for your life.
