Resolved...

Pastor Steve Weaver has a great post about Jonathan Edwards resolutions over at his blog. He summarized Edwards many resolutions into 5 broad categories which I believe I will adopt as my resolutions for 2011:

1. Resolve to Do All for God’s Glory (1, 4, 23)
   1 Cor. 10:31 “Therefore, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.” 
2. Resolve to Live in Order to Die Well (5, 6, 7, 9, 17, 19, 50, 52, 55)
   Romans 14:8 “For if we live, we live to the Lord; and if we die, we die to the Lord. Therefore, whether we live or die, we are the Lord’s.” (For Young People – # 46)
3. Resolve to Study and Pray Well (11, 28, 29)
   2 Tim. 2:15 “Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.”
4. Resolve to Speak Well (16, 31, 34, 36, 70)
   Eph. 4:29 “Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers.”
5. Resolve to Eat and Drink Well (20, 40, 41)
   1 Cor. 10:31 “Therefore, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.”
