Resolutions

I admit, I've never been a fan of New Year's resolutions.  I've tried them in the past and can never seem to stick with them.  Always say nice things, fix sack lunches at night instead of the morning, give up caffiene, etc.  I've lasted a few days, or maybe a week at best.  So, a few years ago I resolved to have no resolutions.  I think many times we give up on our resolutions because we don't feel an immediate impact.  Without an immediate impact, we tend to fall back on our regular routine, good or bad.  Or, we feel like our resolution is just too hard.  Well, this year I prayed about my New Year's resolution, and I came up with a great one!  It's simple, and easy to implement.  It doesn't cost a penny, just my time.  And this time, I am confident I can stick with it.  This time, my resolution is to pray more.  I've moved my quiet time to the morning, when I'm fresh.  The girls aren't awake yet, so there are no interruptions.  It's been great!  I feel so refreshed when I get the girls up for school, and when I get to work every day I remember my purpose to reach others for Christ.  I feel God moving in me and working through me, and I see Him working through my family as well.  It's simply wonderful.  This is definitely my kind of resolution!
