RESOLUTIONS
12 years ago | 1972 Views
Many people make resolutions on New Year’s Day, promising themselves (and sometimes God) that the next year of life will be different. We determine that habits are going to be changed and new patterns of behaviour developed.
Resolutions like these are highly commendable and can often serve as a stimulus to spiritual growth. But not always. Sometimes, our resolutions are carried out only for a little while and all too soon are forgotten.
It is good to engage now and then in self-examination. We should face up to the changes that need to be made, and then make plans for how we are going to implement them. For example, if we realize that our devotional habits are weak and inconsistent, let us resolve to spend some time daily in focused fellowship with God. Let us ask the Spirit to help us in this consistent practice through all our tomorrows. Today is a good day to start.
