Along the way I’ve experienced the good, the bad, and the ugly of New Year’s resolutions—I’ve made many, never started some, successfully completed few, and broken most.
Throughout the years I’ve discovered that the power of making New Year’s resolutions isn’t in the success or failure of my resolutions; instead, it’s in the honest inventory of the past and the continued assessment of future goals and dreams.
January 1st is a check point of sorts—a time to determine where I am and where I want to go; a time to pull out the map to be sure I’m still on the right road (or if I’m on a road at all). Sometimes wandering leads me to interesting places, but a trip taken without ever consulting a map is a meandering journey leading nowhere.
So, join me as I break out The Map (God’s Word) and determine where my joyful journey will lead in this new year.
Final Thought: Searching for direction in life without God’s Word is like using the back of a cereal box in place of an atlas.
