The Miriam-Webster Dicitionary defines resolution as:
a formal expression of opinion, will, or intent voted by an official body or assembled group.
I realised today that my reasons for not making New Year's resolutions was because I didn't stick with them. The truth is though that God calls us to make a resolution daily.
Ephesians 4:22-23 says,
22You were taught, with regard to your former way of life, to put off your old self, which is being corrupted by its deceitful desires; 23to be made new in the attitude of your minds; 24and to put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness.
Also, Romans 12:2 says,
'Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind.
Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.'
This makes me consider that perhaps New Year's resolutions are actually something I should be
engaging in. But beyond that is the need to make New Day's resolutions. The continual renewal of my mind.
