As the sun began to creep over the Cascade mountain range this morning I felt the fresh hope of the new year. The resolutions are in place with the promise of still not having been broken. While I believe in the sovereignty of God, I also believe that somehow, in the midst of his almighty will, I have choices to make. I can choose to serve him today or not. I can choose to live by faith or trust in my own strength. So, I choose to live for Christ again this year. I choose to renew my commitment to him. I choose that even when I fall down, as I'm sure will happen sooner than later, that I will get back up and thank God once again for his amazing grace.
Here is to new year that we can each choose, and by God's please him in the process.
