One Little Word 2015 Update

Halfway through 2015 and I'm proud to report that I've kept up with my OLW project of scripture sundays. Here is a word cloud I made using all the hashtags I've created from the scripture sunday posts.

I'm a little behind on updating the artifact uprising, but I feel confident about being able to add images regularly throughout the summer.

I was thinking I might try something different for the rest of the year, but instead i will stick with scripture sunday posts and hope to expand more on how that inspires me throughout the week.

Honestly, I'm impressed that I've stuck with it this much! Here are a few tips that have made me successful so far:

Lists
I have a list of verses that I find throughout the week which contain the word "be." This makes it easy to sift through and find one that feels right.

Procrastinate Plan
I DON'T make them ahead of time. So in a way I plan ahead, to make them Sunday morning. Perhaps surprising, but I really enjoy waking up on Sundays and getting to work on them. It's not a taxing activity and it's a great way to start the day. Also, at the end of a long week, I am sometimes looking for motivation and that will inspire me to find a scripture that will help me start the next week strong

Awesome Tools
iPad + Blogsy + A Beautiful Mess  + BibleGateway  = quickest
I don't always use these tools but most of this time I do. I use them with such regularity that it is quick and easy for me to find the words, pop them into a a template and post straight from my iPad.

Simple Simple Simple
Sometimes I get fancy and other times not. I don't have a template or any rules which gives me freedom!
