tell of their plans.
How much thought do we give
to our New Years Resolutions?
Not as much as we should. I
don't. Do you?
When we make our Resolutions,
do we ask God to help us carry
them out? Or do we just make
them and keep them of our own
accord? If we don't ask God to
help us, we should. We should
let Him enter in all our affairs.
God is always near and ready t
help us if He sees fit.
Let us, one and all, before
the curtain is pulled across the
stage of 1937. look back and
see if we can find our last oppor
tunities. I am sure we can. I see
my big one right now. At the
beginning of 1937 I said I was
going to Sunday School every
Sunday. I told my friends I was
sure going to do that one thing.
Some one asked me to go to spenu
the weekend with them, so away
I went. I missed the first Sunday
if the year. How many of us have
thought of what it means to
break our Resolutions?
We can also look back and
see where we made our mistake
in making our Resolution to save
our money. We told our friends
we were going to save just one
.little dollar a week for Christmas.
We've never been able to buy all
we want to, but, this Christmas"
we will be, because we are gofng
to save. We save till we see some
thing we want, then we spend
our savings. Christmas comes,
we are broke. So is our Resolu
tion. If we had determined toi
keep our money for nothing but
Christmas and kept it we would
have had plenty for our plans.
We didn't then, as we do now,
see the importance of keeping
our Resolutions. We should have
put a lot of thought to our Re
solutions as we made them. We
should be serious about our
Resolutions as well p,s funny. Let
the breaking of our Resolutions
be a lesson to us.
We have looked over the stags
of 1937 and found some of the
Resolutions we broke. We've seen
things we did that we shouldn't.
the thing we didn't that we
should. We've seen fine oppor
tunities that we let go by on the
account of our own perosanl care
