A new year, a new you? I wonder if you have made any new year resolutions this year – promises to self for self-improvement. Exercise more (or at all) diet, give up smoking, cut down on alcohol. I wonder how many days/weeks/months you have kept such resolution in the past.
Jesus does not promise the will power to stay slim, cut the cigarettes or keep dancing. But he does say that to all who follow him he will give life in all its abundance. That seems to be worth having, to me.
This year is the Diocesan Year of Prayer. Keep a look out on this and the Diocese of Chichester website for news and events over the 12 months.
