Well it’s capital one bowl week here it’s funny how many people really look forward to this week in the year it’s the last week of course but it’s also the beginning of something new. With that said I want to take time to just talk a little bit about New Year’s resolutions. In the past I have noticed that that my New Year’s resolutions often times fall short simply because I am not focused enough to complete what I’ve set out to do. I believe that this is a problem that many of us have, we simply forget what is it we wanted to do. Why? Maybe it’s because of the busyness of the season. We get so caught up in the things that are going on in our lives whether it be professional, involving our family, or simply something that that we have thought that we would like to do. Whatever the reason, many of us will find ourselves starting quickly but falling short in the end.
I know for me the main reason why I tend to fall short is I don’t invite God into my plans. It’s almost as if I simply forget that there’s someone greater than than I that could help me with my plans. Does this sound like you? This year as we sit down further for the week between Christmas and New Year’s, as we watch football and enjoy fellowship with our friends and family let us also take time to remember our Creator who loves each of us and desires to help us in all things. Paul told Timothy that there’s one thing that God cannot do. The one thing that God cannot do is deny God’s self. It’s simply not in God’s nature. Therefore, let us include God in our New Year’s resolutions knowing that the power that we see to complete our life changes are found in the one who can do all things.
My prayer for all who visit this blog is simply a prosperous and healthy 2011. May God richly bless all of you and hold you close to his heart as you begin the new year. Now to all my tech fans, go Hokies!
