One Word 2011

I am straying away from the Project 66 blogs to add and extra post to participate in One Word 2011. This is something that my community group at church is doing and was started this year by blogger Alece Ronzino. The idea is to drop the list of New Year's Resolutions and focus on one word to live your year by. I had a hard time coming up with a word and continually came back to how I would just like to live my life more like Jesus this year than ever before. Loving like Jesus, Serving like Jesus, praying like Jesus, acting like Jesus...etc. Obviously that is more than one word...so I summed it up with the word "sixty-six" (technically two words but when you add a - it makes it 1 :-) right?) In 2011 I will read through most of the Bible with Project 66. I am 2 weeks behind and caught up in Numbers but will catch up and finish reading through the Bible at the beginning of 2012. With my one word "sixty-six" I hope be intentional about living a more Biblically focused life. Through really studying all 66 books of the Bible I hope to redirect my life to one of obedience in what God has instructed us to do and better follow the example of Jesus.
