New Year's Resolutions: NONE

I haven't really even thought much about it. Usually, I do think some about it. I make some goals in particular areas; and I have not doubt that some goals will come about fairly soon. But, here on this New Year's Eve, as I write this blog, with just over 4 hours left in 2009, my total of resolutions for 2010 can be calculated this way: 4-3+6+1 divided by 2-4=
ZERO!

But, the best I can do, for now, is to give you these never changes resolutions, for anytime of year. I might as well use them, as I go into 2010. Perhaps you would like to consider them as well...along with losing those 5 pounds, making that extra money, learning a new skill, etc. etc.

Psalm 19:14 - "Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in your sight, O LORD, my rock and my redeemer."

Jeremiah 9:23,24 - "Thus says the LORD: Let not the wise man boast in his wisdom, let not the mighty man boast in his might, let not the rich man boast in his riches, but let him who boasts boast in this, that he understands and knows me, that I am the LORD who practices steadfast love, justice, and righteousness in the earth. For in those things I delight, declares the LORD."

Acts 20:24 - "But I do not account my life of any value nor as precious to myself, if only I may finish my course and the ministry that I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify to the gospel of the grace of God."

Philippians 3:7-10,12-14 - "But whatever gain I had, I counted as loss for the sake of Christ. Indeed, I count everything as loss because of the surpassing worth of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord. For his sake I have suffered the loss of all things and count them as rubbish, in order that I may gain Christ and be found in him not having a righteousness of my own that comes form the law, but that which comes through faith in Christ, the righteousness from God that depends on faith - that I may know him and the power of his resurrection, and may share his sufferings, becoming like him in his death...Not that I have already obtained this or am already perfect, but I press on to make it my own, because Christ Jesus has made me his own. Brother, I do not consider that I have made it my own. But one thing I do: forgetting what lies behind and straining forward to what lies ahead, I press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus."

May God be well pleased with our lives in 2010!
