Happy New Year!


     Happy New Year!  I actually stayed up past midnight time. Minutes into 2001, I stood out on the front porch with Dad and watched a storm come in.  It was strange, thinking about how an entire year was over - gone.  It made me happy and sad.  It made me want to make this year count, and be worthwhile.  I've been thinking about these questions, asked by a man named Don Whitney:

1. What's one thing you could do this year to increase your enjoyment of God?

2. What's the most humanly impossible thing you will ask God to do this year?

3. What's the single most important thing you could do to improve the quality of your family life this year?

4. In which spiritual discipline do you most want to make progress this year, and what will you do about it?

5. What is the single biggest time-waster in your life, and what will you do about it this year?

6. What is the most helpful new way you could strengthen your church?

7. For whose salvation will you pray most fervently this year?

8. What's the most important way you will, by God's grace, try to make this year different from last year?

9. What one thing could you do to improve your prayer life this year?

10. What single thing that you plan to do this year will matter most in ten years? In eternity?
