New Year's Resolutions

New Year's Resolutions, although they have became a joke for many people, can be of real value. Resolutions can take the form of a goal or vision for the future or a way to establish guidelines for daily life. Here are seven rules for daily living which were practiced by the late F. B. Meyer:

  1. Make a daily definite consecration of yourself audibly to God.
  2. Tell God that you are willing to be made willing about everything.
  3. Reckon on Christ to do His part perfectly.
  4. Confess sin instantly.
  5. Hand over to Christ every temptation and every care.
  6. Keep in touch with Christ. Read the Bible and quality inspirational books, pray and seek places and people where He is.
  7. Expect the Holy Spirit to work in, with and through you.

How wonderful it is to know that God is the Lord of time and that He will be until the stream of time is swallowed up in the ocean of eternity!
