Resolve To Do Something Different



Now for this very reason also, applying all diligence, in your faith supply moral excellence, and in your moral excellence, knowledge, and in your knowledge, self-control, and in your self-control, perseverance, and in your perseverance, godliness, and in your godliness, brotherly kindness, and in your brotherly kindness, love.  For if these qualities are yours and are increasing, they render you neither useless nor unfruitful in the true knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.

2 Peter 1:5-8

The reason why we need to make New Year’s resolutions is so that we take a little time to look at ourselves and see what it is that God would have us to do better.  I know, we all think that we are good, and for the most part we probably are, but there is always room for improvement and with God, it is possible.

So, let us not deflect the nudging of the Holy Spirit when it comes to making our resolutions for the New Year, and know that our willingness to change opens the door for God to work through us and for us to work better for God.

Have a changed and happy New Year.
