Resolution (with apologies to the Beatles):
“You say you made a resolution, well, you know,
We all want to change our ways,
But to really be a resolution, well, you know,
It’s got to last more than twelve days.”
About that New Year’s Resolution: Pray and begin again. If it matters–really matters–God will strengthen you. If not, let it go.
“Blessed is the one who perseveres under trial because, having stood the test, that person will receive the crown of life that the Lord has promised to those who love him.”
~James 1:12
~AΩ~
Twelve days? Sadly, you likely did better than most. 🙂

I’m glad to see this, Mitch! Two weeks late? NOPE! Right on time! “Pray and begin again. if it matters, God will strengthen you. If not, let it go.” YES. WOW. Thank you, dear friend.
Let’s talk about that James! Amen!!!
Many blessings, Mitch, to you, Trudy, and all the Teemley family.
And to you and your family as well, dear friend. <3
Thank you, Mitch. Many transitions beginning this year–both sons moving, a possible move for me…and I’m…here. What a blessing. I’m always happy when I can stop in your place to lean on wisdom and friendship! 💙🙏🏼
By our Lords mercy and grace we will be faithful to Jesus until He comes or we stand in front of Him.
Brilliant.
Thanks, Cindy.
Amen!
Found myself smiling even as I read the title! Great post!

Are only numbers…Is the time !

I liked the rewrite, Mitch. 😉
“But if you are tryin’ to do it in your own power,
You won’t be succeeding for more than a single hour…” Geez, you’ve got me started now. Thanks. ):-(
;>) My pleasure, Annie.
