According to U.S. News, approximately 80 percent of resolutions fail by the second week of February. That’s not the most encouraging statistic as we are making decisions to look more like Jesus this next year. Even Paul points out in Romans that in his own strength, he keeps failing when he tries to do what is right. So how do you follow through on your resolutions? Matthew 19:26 says, “But Jesus looked at them and said, “With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.” So how do you follow through on your goals? Discipline is needed. If we aren’t asking the Holy Spirit to guide and lead us, we are going to grow discouraged. God will show you His plan for your next steps.

Are there any resolutions you need to adjust to honor the Lord better this year?

Spend time thanking Jesus that nothing is impossible with Him!
