Wow! what a wonderful holiday time. Family and friends. It was so good just being with our family and spending time together.

At the start of the new year, I always remember the joke my Dad tells. He turns around several times and then asks someone what he is doing. When they don't know, he tells then he is making his new year revolutions. Get it...turning around...revolutions. Ha!

I came across another thought about the new year and resolutions today. In the Bible we don't hear much about the resolve of people. Sure Joshua made the declaration about himself and his house and we can sight many more. But, the thing we hear the most about is what these people did. Our resolve can be as good as gold. We can state it, proclaim it to the world and even put it in a written form. But we still must remember the early followers of Christ and what was said about them. It is not the "Resolutions of the Apostles" it is the "Acts of the Apostles".

Dear Lord, let me have more "acts" this year.
