New Year Same Word

It’s a new year, and at the beginning of each new year, I pick a word for the year. I have posted before about “HOPE” being my word of the year. It has been my word for the last few years, and yep, it’s my word for 2023! It’s still my word because I still have HOPE.

I saw many prayers answered this past year. I have many more I’m still waiting on an answer to, but I stil have HOPE. I didn’t give up when I didn’t get answers last year, and I won’t give up HOPE that I will get some more answers this year.

I still have HOPE the troubles some of my kids are struggling with will be resolved. I still have HOPE that health issues good friends are experiencing will give them better days. I still have HOPE there are still good people in this world and our paths will cross more often. I still have HOPE I can be that “person” someone needs so they won’t give up.

HOPE: a small four letter word that packs a whopper of power. As long as you have HOPE, you can make it through today. As long as you have HOPE, you can face tomorrow. As long as you have HOPE, you can look forward to the future.

I don’t have any idea what this year holds, but I have HOPE for good things to come.
