Daily Thought: New Year's Resolutions

A new year's resolution is not wrong, unless it fails to be grounded in asking for grace to do it. New year's resolutions may well be a self-sufficient statement before God that says (as Josh Harris put it), "I'm going to do better this year."

Again, they are not wrong, and the can be made with the proper motive of course. However, let us be encouraged to daily seek the face of the One Who provides all grace to do anything that matters on earth and in eternity.

In fact, be encouraged to have goals for the year; life is chaos without a plan! But at the same time, remember that God is not limited by times range (i.e. years) and will do as He pleases in your life in Hi perfect timing and for your good.
