One Resolution To Rule Them All

No matter what we face today or in this new year, may we be reminded:  but first, to pray.  And that changes everything.  First response, not last resort.

If we want to pray more,

       we need to pray more.

Prayer always matters.  It matters a lot.  Far more than we will ever know.   And sometimes in what we see as a witness before our eyes.  God brings something different to the situation and to us.  And that would be His Presence.

If we keep just one resolution in this year, may we honor God and change the world by praying more.

Praying, praising, pouring out.  Not out of a self-imposed resolution, obligation, or even habit, but that we can’t help but to pray.  Not should or gonna, but seizing this profound and present moment to come before Him.

A resolution is not literally defined as a fierce determination to do something, nor an achievement, nor discovering a solution, nor making an impossible list.  Because in Latin, resolution means to loosen.

May we let loose our prayers into His Presence.

for to You

             do I pray.

                                 Psalm 5. 2

Even more this year.

Even more today.
