I Resolve...(Revisited)

With the end of the old year insight and the hope of a new year just over the horizon, our thoughts turn to what could have been and even more important what will be.

These three things we can be sure of:

Some will resolve to be stuck in the past! They will either try reliving old glories or continually beat themselves up because of past mistake. Emerson said, "You have done what you could — some blunders and absurdities have crept in. Forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day. You shall begin it serenely and with too high a spirit to be encumbered with your old nonsense."

Some will resolve to live in the dreamland of the future. Although we that know Christ as our Lord should look forward to glory, we must not become so heavenly minded that we are no earthly good. Some will spend their time and energy always for tomorrow without every taking a moment to enjoy today.

Some will resolve to live today for the glory of God. They will wake up each morning with the resolve to live for their Lord. They will enjoy the ride no matter where it takes them for they rest assured that all is for His glory. Einstein may not have be biblical wise but he did get this one thought right; "Learn from yesterday, live for today, hope for tomorrow."
