December 28
So, have you completed your list of New Year’s Resolutions? Have you determined (one more time) to eat a healthier diet? Are you going to be faithful to your exercise regimen? Perhaps you’re going to express your love and appreciation more fully to the significant people in your life. Sounds great!
At the top of our list of New Year’s resolutions should be this one that will assure the success of the entirety of our agenda for the coming year. We must allow the Christ who loves us to determine who we will be and what we will do in the days and weeks and months that He’s set as a clean slate before us.
There is a glorious promise in Jeremiah 7:23 that should stir our hearts with expectation as we appropriate it to ourselves as our motto for the new year that lies before us and for the entirety of the life that He will give to us as time unfolds into the glorious eternity that He has prepared for those who love Him. It says:
“…Listen to Me and obey My voice and I will be your God and you will be my people. Walk in the way that I have commanded you so it will be well with you.” When we walk in His way, follow His law, embrace Christ’s salvation, we know our resolutions will be blessed for time and eternity with everything God esteems.
