New years Resolution verses new years commitment

Resolution, by Websters definition as the world sees it , is an act of resolving something.
People Say I'm going to make a new year resolution. Did that myself ! But now as a Christian I say I'm going to make a commitment .Is there a difference? You bet there is . When I made a resolution, before I came to know Jesus as savior, I tried to do it by my own strength. However today my commitments are in Gods strength. The definition of commitment is to secede or to accomplish what ever you set out to do.
2nd Chronicles ch 16 V 9; For the eyes of the Lord range throughout the earth to strengthen those hearts that are fully committed to him.You see, God give us the strength to achieve our goals.
We need to make one of our commitments in 2012 to share the love of God to those who don't know him and to be available to help those individuals that are hurting and in need of encouragement. There are precious people out there that don't know how much God loves them .We as Christians have the opportunity to tell them.. may God richly bless your New year!
