It is a New Year that we step into today; and new start in the direction of your choosing. Be it good or bad you are the one, who charts your course here on earth. It will be your own mind and heart that sets your destinations this year.
God, however, will use your obedience or your disobedience to His glory regardless of the course you choose. He is divine and all powerful and though you flee from Him where can you hide?
Your answers to Him now will be by your own lips, your judgment, proclaimed on that final Judgment Day. It will be your testimony that sets you free in Christ or condemns to eternal loss.
It is only God who can give the right to choose and it is only God that can help you choose the right way this year, or any other.

Therefore, choose you today whom you will serve while you can and before you cannot. If God be God, serve Him. If He is not, serve whom you please but whomever you choose other than God, will never please you in the end.
