I couldn't come up with one inspirational word for this year for 2023; however I chose this phrase because my goal is to fully make use of the shoes of peace as referred to in Ephesians 6, in what is known as the "Armor of God" passages.
Quotes from Priscilla Shirer are from the Bible Study book she authored, titled The Armor of God, published 2015 by Lifeway Press.

Recently, I asked God to reveal to me or to remind me what He wants me to do while waiting. These are the promises, scriptures, and examples that His Spirit quickly brought to my mind when I lifted this question up to Him. I'm sharing these now.

People are saying...it has been 2000 years. Maybe it's not going to happen. Instead, we should expect it to take so long. A passage in Matthew gives an example why.

"Why Doesn't God Wipe Out Evil Now?" It's a big question many of us have wondered. Jesus explained why, in a parable. Visit https://www.gospellifelearning.com/2022/09/why-hasnt-god-removed-evil-yet-jesus.html for the post and images of wheat vs. tares.

He asked for all our anxieties! If we don't give them to Him after He asked for them; then we are just responsible for making our own mess in our own heads. But how do we do that?

If you study the words and actions of Jesus in the entire books of Matthew and Mark, you will learn that active faith is the faith that enables you to discern where God is working in your life and in the lives of those around you. You will also see that, over and over again, people were praised by Jesus for their faith when they did nothing more than this: they made an effort to come to Jesus for help.

When was the last time that you weathered a terrible storm in life? Or maybe even you are weathering one right now. Ask yourself – How did you react during that storm? Or during the current storm? Do you see any connections with the way you weathered a storm and where you were in your walk or in your closeness with God at that time? Do you know that there is a key question that will help you to “unlock” the best decision to make for any and all of life’s problems?

The issue with our religious traditions and routines is – we often rely on those, after they have become habits – as the only thing we are doing to represent our closeness with God. It is like understanding that a cup of coffee in the morning does not substitute for the love and growth in a close relationship.
The spiritual truths don't just attach by tacking them on.
