Those who are generous are blessed, for they share their bread with the poor.
Weight Watchers and Nutri-System and all the other diet plans have their biggest months in
January. Did you hear about the notice that appeared in a church bulletin: "Weight Watchers will
meet this Tuesday at 7:00 p.m. Please use the large double door at the side entrance."
Some of us have resolved to pursue an exercise program. One fellow says that he doesn't believe
in exercise. He says if God meant for us to touch our toes, God would have put them farther up
our body.
One man said his doctor suggested he try running in place. The man asked, "In place of what?"
I don't know where your focus will be this New Year. It may be on your weight, or some habit
you would like to get rid of. Hopefully, your most important goal will be to know God more fully
as you share his grace.
(Proverbs 22:9
NRSV)
Are you ready to make your New Year's resolutions? I hope you don't any of them before the
new year begins.
Dear God, help me meet my goals, especially the ones where you are shared. Amen.
