We all have ideas of what new year will bring. Often our new year comes with BIG plans to better our lives... but it is the little things faithfully done where growth happens. Spiritual growth is more like the faithful plodding of a farmer who daily does the hard work and little tasks to ensure a harvest than it is like a space shuttle launching. So, if you've been weak in the little things, why not be a minimalist in 2019 and find out how to be faithful in the little things. It is harder than you might think, but the growth in knowledge and enjoyment and ministry will grow.
Here are a few resolutions you might consider:
- Resolve to always prioritize worshiping with God's people with an alert heart (prep Saturday night by not staying up too late.).
- Resolve to grow in your knowledge of the Word by attending Sunday school and a mid-week Bible study.
- Resolve to attend the sermon discussion and prayer meeting.
- Resolve to spend time in the Word and prayer alone each day.
We make time for what we prioritize or value. It's not that we don't have time, it's that something is not a high enough priority at the moment.
