Resolutions

Greetings and Happy New Year! In Colossians 3:16 it says, Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly as you teach an admonish one another with all wisdom. Well hear we are in another yr. Now starts the thinking process, Of what am I going to do to make this a better yr than last yr. Maybe your going to lose some weight? Maybe your going to exercise more. Maybe quit smoking? We all make Resolutions that we think are going to make our lives more fulfilling and have purpose. But you know one I hardly ever hear is,"I'm going to study The Word of Christ more this yr. Oh I hear it hear and there, but like most Resolutions. People go at it like a Whirlwind,but soon the Wind dies down. Resolutions are all about making a commitment. Principle 7 of the Celebrate Recovery 8 Principles states! Reserve a daily time with God for self-examination, BIBLE READING and prayer in order to KNOW GOD AND HIS WILL FOR MY LIFE and to gain the power to follow his will. You see reading the Bible helps us achieve this. And I'm telling you there is no greater Resolution you could make this yr than to Know God! And then know what He wants you to do in life. I know I harp on this all the time. To you all,to my 12step guys and to my Small group guys on Thursday.
