Resolutions?

Every year we try to be perfect. The passing of one year and the beginning of the next is a great opportunity for each of us to take inventory of our lives and make some decisions about improvement and change. Diet, exercise, time management probably top most of our lists.

For me, I had a terrible Jan 1! I was not kind to those close to me, I was very selfish, etc., etc., etc.. Makes me sick. In fact, I was sick on New Years Eve, waking up at 3:30 am, kneeling at the toilet and vomitting my brains out. (Editor's note: NOT because of alcohol.) How's that for a first action of a new year!

Through the Lord's mercies we are not comsumed, because His compassions fail not. They are new every morning; Great is Your faithfulness.
Words of the ancient prophet, Jeremiah, as recorded in the Biblical book of Lamentations

Isn't it wonderful to know that every day we can start anew? The lyrics to the theme song of Greg Laurie's radio program say it well:

A new beginning
Life in Christ is now and ever
A new beginning
With mercy he renews

Our sins have been removed as far as the east is from the west! So today, we begin anew!
