Resolutions Anyone?

It’s a new year  . . . did you make any resolutions?  We have just completed the first week of January - have you broken any of your resolutions?  Did you give up?  The beginning of a new year is not the only time we can make a new start.  We have the ability to start over every day.  Actually, we can start over at any time, whether it is every morning or every minute.  Just because we "failed" does not mean we are done.  Think of it this way:  F.A.I.L. = First Attempt In Learning

Lamentations 3:22-23:  Through the Lord’s mercies we are not consumed, Because His compassions fail not.  They are new every morning; Great is Your faithfulness.

Discouragement is a great tool of the enemy, and he would want us to quit as soon as we fail.  But we have a gracious God that willingly gives us grace and mercy every day – He never runs out.  We are a “work in progress” and God knows that.  God is also the one who will complete the work He has started.

Philippians 1:6:  being confident of this very thing, that He who has begun a good work in your will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ;

So, consider this your opportunity to make a new resolution.  Resolve to run to the Lord for your help.  That is one resolution that will never fail!
