NEW YEAR'S RESOLUTIONS
are like games~
you win some and you lose some.
We start them and we stop them, well at least that is what I do,
when I am accountable to myself, so who really wins?
But
LIFE ISN'T A GAME It is filled with *Trouble*~
"Dear brothers and sisters, when TROUBLES
of any kind come your way, consider it an opportunity for great joy.
For you know that when your faith is tested, your endurance has a chance to grow." James 1:2-3 We need to say *SORRY*~
"But if we confess our sins to HIM,
HE is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all wickedness." I John 1:9 We need to take a
*RISK*~
"Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous.
Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged,
for the LORD your GOD will be with you wherever you go.” Joshua 1:9 We need *CONCENTRATION*~
"Let your eyes look directly forward, and your gaze be straight before you." Proverbs 4:25 And sometimes we don't even have a *CLUE*~
"Trust in the LORD with all your heart; do not depend on your own understanding. Seek HIS will in all you do, & HE will show you which path to take." Proverbs 3:5-6
So let’s get serious and stop playing *CHARADES*~
"Stop deceiving yourselves. If you think you are wise
by this world’s standards, you need to become a fool to be truly wise." I Corinthians 3:18
Because
LIFE ISN'T A GAME~
If you cheat you will lose. You don’t get a second chance.
LIFE ISN'T A GAME
It is a choice. Either you
*BELIEVE IT OR NOT*~
"If you try to hang on to your life, you will lose it. But if you give up your life for MY sake, you will save it. And what do you benefit if you gain the whole world but lose your own soul?
Is anything worth more than your soul?" Matthew 16:25-26
Then everyone Wins!
Because
JESUS IS MORE THAN A RESOLUTION
because
IN HIM
You win every time.
