How will God guide you in 2025?

The morning the Epiphany Star Words were handed out, Frank and I were in Becca’s line.

After receiving our Star words, we shared what one another got. I could see their Star word in them.

“CRAFTS”? What does that have to do with God?

My whole life people have told me that I should write a book.

As soon as I saw the word on my star, I knew God was speaking directly to me. My word is "release."

I was rather perplexed when I received a star with the word “dance” on it.

When I was walking up to receive my star word for 2024, I was excited but also a little nervous. What word would God place in my hand?

My star word this year is Passion. A feeling of excitement or energy for doing something—fervor, zeal, a stirring to act.

I have kept my star word on my desk and looked at it every day. Truth is, when I randomly got my word, I knew what it would mean for me.

Back in January, when I first heard about Epiphany star words, I did an eye roll.  I dismissed the idea out of hand as silly.

Over twenty-five years ago, I was told that, due to my traumatic brain injury, I would never be able to complete a college education.

In January we gave each person an Epiphany star with a single word on it; one word.

Mary passed away this year at the age of 99.
