My Word for 2022

To be clear, the above picture reveals everything. My word for 2022 is, indeed, OPPORTUNITY!

Opportunity – noun: a set of circumstances that makes it possible to do something.

Pretty exciting, that’s for sure. It came to me the end of October, and I’m not thinking too deeply about it this time around. That’s been a problem with me before–overthinking it. But the last several years, I’ve learned to carry my word with me, like a compass when I need direction. Last year’s word, determined, was spot on. Many, many times I had to make myself keep on keeping on. As my sister-in-law said to me last year during a video chat when I asked her how she was doing, “Sometimes you just have to get up and decide you’re going to move forward.”

But it’s 2022. New year, new word. Opportunity. . . Unlike previous years, I’ve added a prayer to go with this word:

Lord, help me to see the opportunities You bring across my path, in Jesus’ name, amen.

I will keep you posted on how that goes this year!

Snow storm
Lovely snow. An opportunity to enjoy winter?
