Beginnings

One the most interesting things about January comes from the resolutions people often make to look forward to the year ahead, and in so doing, make choices that will ultimately affect their destinies. The New Year signifies the beginning of new things, a chance to start over again. We get excited over the chance to begin again, to start anew. However, we often fail to realize that the choice of beginning remains with us. It is our choice of whether or not we consciously change the decisions of yesterday into the promise of tomorrow.

Why, then, are we making those choices at the beginning of a year? The wonderful realization about God is that He gives us the chance to make the choice for Him DAILY...it is not a time of resolution with Him. He allows us to take the stand and choose him daily. And when we make the choice, he doesn't look back. Why then should we? When you resolve to stand for Christ, everyday is a new beginning. That, to me, is simply remarkable.
