As a New Year draws near, I am reminded that we are one year closer to the day of our death, or the day the Lord returns. So, let me use this opportunity to suggest some resolutions for the coming year. Resolve to draw near to Christ by daily reading his word. Resolve to be diligent in prayer, telling God what you need and thanking him for all he has done. Resolve to become closer to your Sugar Land Methodist Church family. Join a Sunday school class or small group. Resolve to get to know more people who don’t know Christ. Meet your neighbors or co-workers, build meaningful relationships in which opportunities are created to share the Good News. These resolutions may sound simplistic; but if implemented, they will go a long way to bless your life and bring glory to God. Happy New Year!
