New Year Resolutions...

New Year resolutions are a thing of tradition it seems in our busy little world we live in.  I say busy little world, because it often seems we as human beings tend to become focused just on the immediate things around us.  That is often why our resolutions tend to focus on how to better ourselves physically, or how we can be more organized with ALL the things we are involved in.  Yet I wonder if those of us who are believers in Jesus Christ, would instead of adding to their resolutions instead, resolve to focus on making one thing their key focus throughout the year.  That is making much of Jesus Christ in all that we do.  Whether we eat or drink may we do it all to the glory of the Lord.  Or as one author that I enjoy reading has put it, to live the cross centered life.  Yeah this seems like an almost unattainable task to say one would like to do this every day, but I suppose that is where discipline and hard work come into play in our walk with Jesus as He leads us in ever step we should go.  May this new year bring something different in terms of resolutions one that does not focus on us but instead focuses on our need to be more like Christ in everything we do.
