Verse for 2011!

I got my new blog header up! What do you think? I like the change...change can be good!!!

Over the last couple of years, I have "claimed" a verse(s) to be what I want the year to be about!

Last year, (2010) the verse I choose was based from the passage of Matthew 17 where Jesus is talking about believers and unbelievers. For 2010, I claimed specially the end of verse 20 that says, " and nothing shall be impossible unto you!" I feel like that became my theme for last year...in anything that I did whether it was school, weight loss, summer jobs, student teaching...the list could go on and on! I still believe those words with all my heart and maybe even more after the year I had last year!

So, for 2011...I really prayed about and thought of a verse that would sum up the season of my life I am currently in and also be fitting for this coming year! (AND by the way, how is it almost February?!?! )

I decided on Zephaniah 3:17 :

"The Lord thy God in the midst of thee is mighty; he will save, he will rejoice over thee with joy: he will rest in his love, he will joy over thee with singing!"

Don't you just love this? I have loved reading these words almost daily so far this year! I like that this verse isn't one that people always refer to and it is tucked so neatly into the Old Testament!

This is going to be a great year and change is definitely in the air~ I can feel it!

Hope your Friday is great!!!!
