New Year Resolution

twitter-new-year-resolutionsIsaiah 55:6 Seek ye the LORD while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near:

Each year New Year resolutions are made only to fail due to lack of pursuit.  However, there is one resolution that should be made and kept daily.  That is, to seek the LORD while He may be found.  The implication is that there will come a time when He will not be found.  Ten virgins took their lamps and went to meet the bridegroom. Five of them took extra oil and five did not.  While waiting, they became tired and fell asleep.  Later, they were called to go and meet the bridegroom.  They all arose, but not all had oil in their lamps.  In other words, five faltered by not preparing to seek the LORD as long as required.  The lesson here is to never cease to seek, watch, prepare, pursue, and wait on the LORD, for no one knows the hour or the day when He will come.   He is nearer than we think.  Resolve to seek Him.

Scripture References:  Matthew 25:1-13

Prayer for today:  Father you said if I delight myself in you, you would give me the desires of my heart.  I desire to diligently seek you while you may be found and to dwell with you in your kingdom forever.   In JESUS name, AMEN.

Whatever you must do today, there is a grace for that. Accept the grace and make it a sweatless day.

Love
