It is hard to believe that this is the last day of the year. Tomorrow will be the first day of a new year.
This is a great time to set goals for the new year. However, many make resolutions for the new year and by the end of the week we break them.
Here are some resolutions that are good to make anytime.
Read Your Bible in a Year
Getting into the habit of reading the Word is also a common New Year’s resolution for many Christians. There are plenty of Bible reading plans out there that guide you through reading your Bible in a year. It just takes discipline to open up the book every night. You may not even want to read the entire Bible, but rather use a year to focus on a specific topic or area of your life that you want God to help you improve. Find a reading plan that works for you.
Become a Better Steward
One of the most challenging issues for Christians is the idea of stewardship, which is the process of tithing. However, God calls on all Christians to be good stewards. In fact, money is mentioned far more often in the Bible than other topic.
Plant Some Seeds of Faith
How many times have you evangelized to friends or family. Make it your goal this year to talk to a certain number of people about your faith. While it would be great if someone converted or “got saved” through your discussions, don’t get too caught up on that number. You’d be amazed how many people will end up believers from a discussion you have about what God has done in your life. It just may not happen while you know them.
