I always make my new year’s resolutions simple and short so when I break them it isn’t so much trouble. I guess there is a name for that which is called lazy or weak or many other names. I think the resolutions are like making a vow. In times past a vow was binding and serious. Many people tend to brush them off as a fad or a little game that is unimportant. Among many Christians that is not so. I think the resolutions we make help us grow and get more serious about what we do in our daily lives. GOD is always serious about what we do with our lives. Our lives really belong to Him and honesty is surely among the top things GOD is pleased with. If we could always be pure while we live in this world, it would not have been necessary for Jesus to come and pay for our sins. So what should our first resolution be? I think it should go something like this: I VOW TO SERVE GOD WHEREVER HE SENDS ME THIS YEAR. That might not sound like much but I think GOD will remind us of our vow each time we break it.
BOTTOM LINE: GOD’S love for people is unbreakable. I believe GOD grieves when people hear the gospel and turn away instead of accepting Jesus as their personal savior. Jesus said, “COME UNTO ME ALL WHO ARE HEAVY LADEN AND I WILL GIVE YOU REST. TAKE MY YOKE UPON YOU AND LEARN OF ME FOR I AM MEEK AND LOWLY AND YOU WILL FIND REST FOR YOUR SOULS”……AMEN
