We begin 2023 with a new series: 30 days to a Happy New You. Thirty calendar days between now and January 31st.
A new year often affords us the opportunity to reflect, to think about the previous 12 months: accomplishments, milestones, mistakes made, lessons learned. But we ought not be stuck in last year or the many years that preceded that one. In Philippians 3L13-14, the apostle Paul says this, “One thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus.”
Rather than remain rooted in the past, we are to have a future orientation. One way to look ahead to the future with a sense of purpose is through the making of resolutions.
Additional scriptures referenced include Ephesians 2:8–12; Romans 5:8; Titus 3:5; 2 Corinthians 5:17; Deuteronomy 9:7; Psalm 77:11; Psalm 103:2; Hebrews 13:3; Colossians 4:18; 1 Corinthians 6:9–11; Romans 8:1, 28 ; Hebrews 8:12; Ephesians 5:15-17; and Jeremiah 29:11.
