Seven Goals for a New Year
If the Lord doesn't return before 2012 ends, I would like to see the following improvements in my life:
1. I want to constantly start each day with prayer (Mark 1:35)
2. I want to consistently face life's battles with the Word of God (Matthew 4:4, 7, 10)
3. I want to know God for myself (John 17:3)
4. I want to be a shining light for others (Matthew 5:14-16)
5. I want to honor, respect, and uplift others (Matthew 7:12)
6. I want to life in the atmosphere of God's peace, regardless of my circumstances (John 16:33)
7. I want to live in eager expectation of His return (Matthew 24:42, 44; 25:13)
I've tried "new year's resolutions" over the years, but believe these are more realistic, and certainly more worthwhile. I challenge you to at least consider them.
