Have you ever asked God to give you a "word" for the year? I hadn't until I started meeting with a group of writers several years ago (I'm waving to you, Robin!) and a few of them had done it. Ever since, we've prayed together asking the Lord to show us something specific he wants each of us to focus on for the year.

In this action-addicted world, few of My children take time to sit quietly in My Presence. But for those who do, blessings flow like streams of living water.
