I read a book years ago and the author shared that every year God would give her a verse to focus on for the year. The verse wasn't always one she "liked", meaning it was designed to grow her, but that God would give her one. So, do you have a verse you are focusing on for 2013? I will share mine with you,
"Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, give thanks in all circumstances for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you." 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18. Please share your verse.

Well, I have been talking much more than listening in my time with God, and I'm also very guilty of taking things into my own hands to try to solve. So I am looking for a good verse to focus on stepping back and trusting and listening.
Perhaps:
"Wait for the Lord;
be strong and take heart
and wait for the Lord." (Ps 27:14)
or:
"Show me your ways, Lord,
teach me your paths.
Guide me in your truth and teach me,
for you are God my Savior,
and my hope is in you all day long." (Ps 25:4-5)
Catrin,
I definitely have "Sarah" tendencies. Thinking God might need a little bit of my help. Waiting on the Lord is something I think may be a life long lesson for me. Thanks for sharing.
