Anyone Have a Bible Verse of the Year for 2025 (or one you're focusing on for 2026)?

I just saw that the top, most-searched Bible verse of 2025 was Jeremiah 29:11:

“For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.”

It’s perhaps not a surprising one, but there is a lot of historical/biblical context in the book of Jeremiah that makes it clear that this verse is much more than a promise that we will have an easy, prosperous life.

Yet, it is a compelling verse, for sure.

What was your top verse of 2025? What did God teach you over the past year through his Word? I’d love to hear! I’m still mulling over what stood out to me from Scripture in the past year, but will share when I have given it some more thought!

One verse that’s been anchoring me lately is Isaiah 26:3: “You will keep in perfect peace those whose minds are steadfast, because they trust in you.”

This past year was full of change and noise, and I kept coming back to that verse when my thoughts started spiraling. It reminded me that peace doesn’t come from having all the answers, but from staying fixed on the One who does.

I don’t know yet if it’ll be my verse for 2026 too, but it’s definitely one I’ll carry forward. Curious to hear what others are holding onto.

Love that verse! I’m trying to leave space in these early weeks of the year to listen for the Spirit and what God has for me in 2026.

Always a good one, especially to start the year!

For the year 2026, my resolution is to extend love to all individuals, both virtuous and flawed, with the same depth of affection I hold for my own family, and to uphold this commitment throughout my lifetime.

1 Corinthians 13

King James Version

13 Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal.

**2 **And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing.

**3 **And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, and have not charity, it profiteth me nothing.

**4 **Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up,

**5 **Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil;

**6 **Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth;

**7 **Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things.

**8 **Charity never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away.

**9 **For we know in part, and we prophesy in part.

**10 **But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away.

**11 **When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things.

**12 **For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.

**13 **And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity.
