Found it!
So, after searching and knocking and looking and meditating, the word of the year is pray. Simple right? Obvious? Maybe. Just right for me? Yes and yes. With a head nod, shake of the tail and a wink.
I did not come by this word on accident. It was there, staring at me. Waiting to be unearthed. Well, actually just waiting to be acknowledged. This word found me. Each and every time I sat waiting for the lightening bolt movie moment it softly spoke. Nudging me toward acceptance. I was hesitant. Certainly, I pray, I journal, I converse with the One. I do. Yet to Pray is so much more than that. And that is exactly what I intend to discover this year. A journey before me of learning more about this word.
I pray because I can’t help myself. I pray because I’m helpless. I pray because the need flows out of me all the time- waking and sleeping. It doesn’t change God- it changes me. - C.S. Lewis
“Your prayer will show you what condition you are in. Theologians say that prayer is the monk’s mirror.” - St. John of the Ladder (7th Century Christian Monk)

Yay, glad you found it, or glad it found you!
