2017 Word - PURSUE
Life sure is busy and can numb us to the reality and the opportunity of " something bigger and more " in life so one way we try to be intentional is to choose a scripture and a word for the year for our family.
Because of our season of change and our experience of waiting and seeking clarity from God this verse jumped out at us. We had so many moments of being redirected as we would naturally lean toward seeking God's plan instead of His face. Ya know what I mean? We had the tendancy to seek answers and not Who God is and in those moments we were constantly being corrected to just know Him and by knowing Him and His ways everything else becomes clear and will be made known.
It's not easy, it takes discipline and I have a feeling we will always struggle with doing it our way, but this scripture and word will serve as a good reminder this year and hopefully every year to follow in all of our lives that pursuing God is the way to all that you need.
This song has resonated with us during this season -
Before I bring my need
I will bring my heart
Before I lift my cares
I will lift my arms
I wanna know You
I wanna find You
In every season
In every moment
Before I speak a word
Let me hear Your voice
I wanna seek You First
I wanna keep You First
