2014: Word of the Year {Word of the Year}

January 2, 2014 by Dana

I admit, I could not remember my word of the year for 2013 so I had to go back and look it up.  It was DRIVEN.  At the time, I could not have even begun to imagine the effects of that word on our life through the past year.

DRIVEN: It’s had so many meanings this year.  We have driven from home to Charleston to home over and over again.  We have traveled these miles carrying each of my four children to different doctors.  Sometimes coming home with great results, sometimes being placed on the back burner because of our life with Epilepsy and most of these trips were because of our Epilepsy.

DRIVEN:  The past year has been one of the hardest for our family.  We had to be driven to overcome all the challenges and obstacles that have been in front of us for the year.  It was hard to keep it all together but we have managed and we are praying in this next year, we won’t need to be so driven to overcome all the things as we have been for the past year.

DRIVEN:  It’s what my baby has been all year.  His immense strength amazes me.  He’s fought to hard all year as his sweet body was wracked with uncontrollable seizures that he didn’t even realize were going on.  It’s what my sweet daughter has also been, trying to maintain control after her seizure in June which still effects her thoughts daily.  Sometimes it’s the aftermath that’s worse than the actual seizure.

Yes, this year has been a rough one and our word for last year definitely fit us well!!  Our word for the next year is OVERCOME.  We will overcome the challenges of the last year.  We will overcome the challenges ahead of us this year.  We will manage our lives better, attempt to have better control of ourselves, our homes and the little things that life throws at you when you least expect it.  That will be my goal and dream for this next year.

Through Christ we can OVERCOME it all!

Faithful and Driven {Word of the Year}

January 3, 2013 by Dana

2012: Faithful

Since I didn’t choose a word for the beginning of 2012, I decided I would chose one that sums my year up.  Faithful.  This year has been based upon faith in so many ways.

Faith in religion, in God.  Faith in birth.  Faith in finances.  Faith in home, friends, family.  A never-ending stretch of faith.

I am filled with Faith.  Somedays, I don’t think I can find it but there is always that simple, small mustard seed, which in the end of it all is all that we need.  Just a simple mustard seed of faith in the Lord.

And I can promise you, I do have that.

This year, in 2013, my word of the year will be Driven.

This year, I will be driven to complete the tasks I have put off.  Driven to make choices in life and religion, faith and love.  Driven to do better for my family, better for myself.

I will find myself moving forward.  I will be building upon dreams and tasks that I have wished to have completed for a long time.  I will head into this year on a mission to do the best I possibly can.  Driven to do what I need to as I’m lead to progress.

I’m hoping I can live up to this word throughout the year, as I grow in many things and accomplish many of the wishes I have.  What is your word for 2012 and 2013?  Please share in the comments or send me a link if you’ve shared in a post.  I’d love to read them.
