Revelation in Resolutions

I'll try to keep this short, but I had to record a sort of revelation that I've had in the notion of resolutions. It kind of came about while talking with a dear friend. Thank you, Donna!

As believers in Christ, we are His. He bought us at a price, our lives are no longer ours. So ultimately, resolutions are not ours to make....they are His. Jesus knows what needs to be resolved in us. When we seek Him, surrender ourselves to Him, we will hear Him and He will lead us to those things that He desires to resolve. This is how much He loves us and knows us.

As an example, in my previous post I indicated that Jesus has resolved that our family needs to work on having grace in our speech. He knows that this is an area that hinders us and often separates us from Him. Because we are willing to hear the beautiful voice of our Savior, He is able to reveal these things to us. Oh, how I hope this makes sense. It was just one of those lightbulb moments for me! So, Lord Jesus, resolve away! My life is Yours!

A very freeing revelation, indeed.
