Resolution Blitz

It's hard to believe we are moving into the final quarter of 2009. What better opportunity to begin our New Year's Resolutions than now - for 2009. I remember the good intentions at the beginning of the year that were shoved to the back along with last week's meatloaf. But why not make a go of it? I know there might not be time to lose 200 pounds in 12 weeks, but what about matters of faith:

• The intention to invite the unchurched neighbor over to get to know them a little better;
• purchasing the new outfit for the teen because the struggling single parent can't keep up with the growth spurt;
• establishing a routine reading the Bible;
• setting up time to pray with your kids each night or before they head out the door;
• getting back in the swing of attending church as a family and then being intentional about applying what you have learned;
• finding out whose going on a mission trip and see if you can go or help them go.
• begin saving to help a family at Thanksgiving or Christmas

The list of resolutions could be lengthy, but let's review our lists, put them up around our house, and then go them. (It's good to go to church; but I'd rather BE the church.)

Happy New Year!
