Nothing....not anything is too difficult for God.
We are about to celebrate the beginning of a brand new year....The year of 2012! With this celebration comes newness...A new beginning, a new start. We delight in knowing that there is HOPE for all the things that we have failed at, during the previous year...
New Years Resolutions.... A new year means that we can make new commitments to improve our lives or the lives of those around us.
1. Lose weight
2. Stop some kind of habit
3. Make an effort to help others
4. Get fit
5. Get out of debt
6. Spend more time with family
7. Slow down
8. Get organized
9. Follow a budget
10. Be more earth friendly
This list can go on and on and on and on and on! I think you all get the picture here.
Usually these are things that we have tried to do over and over again. We just simply are not able to stick with the plan and we end up giving up! God's word says that there is "nothing too difficult for God." Do you believe this? I certainly DO!
God is able to take our weaknesses and make them our strengths....
We put limitations on ourselves and we measure our strengths by
what WE believe WE can or cannot do.....The simple truth is that we don't have to wait for a New Year! God is with us always!
All we need to do is to call upon the Lord. Through our asking and our commitment, we will be able to "Do all things through Christ, who strengthens us"
Blessings!!

ReplyDeleteHi Shug, What a fun and loving family you are! Aren't the puppies cute, can't wait to pick him up! We got a couple of inches of snow today and I thought of you:) Don't really make New Year Resolutions, perhaps just to take better care of myself so I can be there to serve others. Wishing you the best in 2012! Happy New Year and God Bless!
