Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come! (2 Corinthians 5:17, NIV 1984).
My Musings – “The old has gone, the new has come!” An apt description of a New Year’s resolution. But for most resolutions, the old doesn’t stay gone very long. The new just doesn’t stick. However, “if anyone is in Christ, [they are] a new creation.” Ther is no going back on that one. But it is not our resolve that makes it stick. “I [Jesus] give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; no one can snatch them out of my hand. My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all; no one can snatch them out of my Father’s hand.” (John 10:28–29, NIV 1984).
My Advice – If you have not already done so, make the one “resolution” that will stick. It will make it a Happy New Year.
