"Thou crowns the year with thy goodness."- Psalms 65:11
At the close of each year, and crowning it, let us consider God’s goodness- how loving, kind, generous, and sympathetic he has been. Let us also look back to see what progress we have made in love, in
knowledge, in developing a Christlike character, and in serving our Heavenly Father. We can then resolve, with the LORD’S help, to do still better in the New Year! Psalms 104:24
December 31
What shall I render unto the Lord for all His benefits toward me? I will take the cup of salvation, and call upon the name of the Lord. I will pay my vows unto the Lord, now, in the presence of all His people. (Psalm 116:12-14)
THE close of the year is an excellent time for the making of new resolutions for the year to come. Let us, beloved brethren, make plenty of good resolves respecting what we shall be willing to be, to do, to suffer, in fellowship with our Lord; that we may by His grace make of it the best year thus far of our lives--the year of largest hopes, of largest endeavors, and by the Lord's grace of largest successes in self-sacrifice, in overcoming the world and its spirit, in vanquishing self and the desires of the flesh, in resisting the adversary, and in glorifying our Lord and blessing His people.
