Studying One Word for a Whole Year

What would happen if you chose one word from the Bible to study and meditate on for an entire year? Debbie Macomber does just that, and she shares her experiences in the book One Perfect Word.

A devoted Christian, Debbie Macomber is a writer of romance and Christmas fiction. A bestselling author, she has written over two hundred novels. Several Christmas movies have been based on her books, such as her stories about Mrs. Miracle. The Cedar Cove television series is based on her book series by the same name.

Years ago, Debbie decided to focus on one word from the Bible for a whole year. Each year she studies the meaning of the word, searches scripture for the word, and meditates on the word. Her relationship with God has been deepened by her yearly studies, and she finds that the things that happen in each year relate closely to the word that she chose.

In this book, she shares fourteen of the words God led her to choose, some of which were believe, brokenness, prayer, obedience, and balance. She offers real life stories to illustrate each word, many of which come from her own experiences.

I really enjoyed reading this book. God may lead you to focus on one word for a whole year, or it could be for a month, a week, or a day. Having a daily quiet time where you study God’s Word and listen to His voice is important to your Christian growth.
