From the Pastor's Desk:
Many people make New Year's resolutions each year. However, it has been determined that most of those same people fail to keep their New Year's resolutions by January 9th. That is why January 9th has been labeled, "Quitter's Day!"
In the 1980's there was a television show called "The A-Team." It was a crime-fighting show with John "Hannibal" Smith as its leader. He always had a plan to accomplish his mission. When it worked (and it always did), Hannibal would sit back contentedly and say, "I love it when a plan comes together!"
The Bible tells us that God makes plans. He makes plans for each one of us individually ... and He makes plans for all of us collectively. God makes the plans ... and He knows the plans. His plans are for our benefit and success. His plans provide a future and a hope for us.
Let me ask ... What are your plans for 2025? Do they include God? Do they include growing in your Christian walk? Do they include serving God and His Kingdom? Let us all resolve to make plans for 2025 to be a God-glorifying year!
