Happy New Year!
Today I’m over at Ignatian Ministries Into the Deep blog writing about Psalm 23 and my 2024 word(s) of the year.
Here’s an excerpt:
“That night at mass I tangibly felt God showing up for me. I raised my hand, said yes, and then took the long walk up the side aisle myself. But when I prayed my last minute desperate prayer for God to join God’s voice with mine, I wholeheartedly believe God did exactly that. Because in the end, I did not miss a note.
Each year in December, I choose a word (or it chooses me) to guide me through the upcoming year. It was a practice I started six years ago on the encouragement of a woman who always found her chosen words to be a tangible sign of grace from God. After ending last year in an unexpectedly debilitating way, my word for the year was hope. I chose hope because I never needed it more. This year, however, I believe my word chose me.”
Hop on over to the blog to read the rest. Maybe it’ll help you come up with your own word(s) for 2024!
