New year resolution

Num:30:2

A man who makes a vow to the Lord or makes a pledge under oath must never break it. He must do exactly what he said he would do.

A man who keeps his word is considered as a man of dignity, a man of integrity and a man who is trustworthy.

Though conceptually we concur to this, we live in a world of broken promises and unfulfilled new year resolutions.

Many diaries have started with a list of desires and plans for the new year on 1/1/__ only to be disappointed and failed on the very next page.

We start with a desire and enthusiasm on day 1 only to bend it for our conviniences later on.

Many a gyms which were busy on Jan 1, becomes deserted and desolate later on.

We have started many a diaries, but to the end of the year most of the pages are still unwritten.

Why are we so inconsistent?

Why so fluctuating and conflicting?

A man's word should be as good as his bond - John D Rockfeller Jr.

Out of our unfulfilled promises come the lack of trust people have in us.

Out of it comes out fears and worries.

Our lack of confidence in ourselves.

Resolutions are meant to be fulfilled not broken. And for that we need a strong will power, a deep desire and an utmost trust in the Father. Either of it alone will not take you through. All three are required.

What's your resolution for 2021?

Agreed uncertainties looming around may marr and hamper your plans. But keep striving, continue to desire(be passionate about it) and continue to trust.

31/12/21 will be a day to testify that Lord has enabled.
