I’m not big on New Year’s resolutions as a general rule. I
think every day and any day is a good time to really think and make changes. But
I do admit that it can be helpful to have special times or seasons when we take
stock and take on some new initiatives that could improve our lives.
I really appreciated hearing about the ‘Blessings Jar’
that some people are using for the year ahead. I think that is an idea that has
great potential.
Personally, I have taken on some things that I hope to do
this year and one of the things I have done is to sign up for the ‘One With
Them’ devotional from Open Doors International. Open Doors is a ministry that
is devoted to the persecuted church. Every day for the next 365 days I will
have the opportunity to connect somewhat to those who are suffering persecution
for their faith. It’s a really good opportunity.
You may have other things that you are doing, but if you
are interested in having a devotional appear in your inbox each day for the
year, with authors including field staff, local pastors, widows and children
and each with a ‘unique story to tell and lesson to be learned’. You might want
to give it a look.
Here is the link to their site and to the devotional
offer. May God bless 2013 for you and yours.
