If you believe the Bible to be true, then you accept that the Lord directs our steps. Even with the best intentions of a resolution being a promise to God, the warning is clear that this traps us.

If you find yourself on the threshold of 2020 and wondering how you plan and anticipate what’s next, can I encourage you to ditch the expectation for a resolution and the need to know every next step. Rather, embrace this concept of identifying a word or phrase that you hope describes what your life looks like and then seek God in the pursuit of that lifestyle.
