Let's talk about the new trend: Word of the Year

Alright so recently, I've been seeing a lot of posts about something called Word of the Year from non-Catholics. What it is, from my understanding is this: you open your Bible and pray about a word that God wants you to focus on throughout the year and you do a Scripture study based on that word. Sounds interesting enough.

So I decided to give this a try. I didn't come up with just one word though but a phrase: Stand in Thankful Perseverance. It's interesting to see how that phrase pretty much fits how I live my life according to my Catholic faith.

I've done more thinking about this and I do actually like the idea, but don't limit yourself to one word or one phrase throughout the year. Let God lead you to what He wants you to focus on at certain times throughout the year.
