If The Lord Will

The Resolution Blitz is prepared to bombard New Year's Day as plans to make one better seizes New Year's Eve. It's OK to plan, but wise people know we are not in control of the future. Go ahead. Make your plans but do it right.

James 4:13-15 Go to now, ye that say, To day or to morrow we will go into such a city, and continue there a year, and buy and sell, and get gain: Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapor, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away. For that ye ought to say, If the Lord will, we shall live, and do this, or that.

Our lives should be governed by four precious, powerful words: "If the Lord will..." We serve an all-powerful God who not only knows our future, but tailor makes it just for us. The Lord will help us with our resolutions if that's His will. Surrender to His will---His plan.
