Here are Some Thoughts to Consider for the New Year: Read John chapters 14:1-6 and 15:1-8; 11-14 and James 4:7-10, knowing you are Christ's friend and are called to abide in Him. 1. What does Christmas mean to you? What should it mean? What can be learned from the Puritans and the Christmas Truce of 1914? 2. What do you need to do to be focused on building your life on His precepts? 3. Which of these gifts have you given God already? How is it going? 4. Which gifts do you need to work on? 5. What can you do to better give God these gifts? 6. Which gifts are the most problem for you to give and why? 7. What is in the way of your giving these gifts to God? 8. What will your life look like when these gifts are functioning more prevalently? 9. What can you do to live by faith as a verb (action)? Most Christians just "think" about living the Christian life and do not really apply their faith to the reality of their daily lives. 10. Can you benchmark some goals? That is, can you draw up a spiritual action plan for the coming year? Just as a business plan is essential to establishing vision and building a business, so is establishing a plan to build your faith. a. What is this plan's vision and goal? b. How will you accomplish this goal? c. Who will help you be accountable? 11. What can you do to see that these goals become realities and not end up on a piece of paper in the trash? 12. Consider you cannot change how others treat you, but you can change how you treat and react to how others treat you! a. So, how do you treat others? b. How do you react to others? c. Are these actions in line with the character that Christ calls us to? The Resolutions of Jonathan Edwards Resolved, that I will do whatsoever I think to be most to God's
glory, and my own good, profit and pleasure, in the whole of my duration,
without any consideration of the time, whether now, or never so many myriad's
of ages hence. Monthly Bible Study Article Emmanuel Everyday Applying Christ back to Christmas!
