2 Unconventional New Year’s Resolutions
I. Give more attention to the needs of others – Phil 2:19-24 (Timothy)
Matthew 22:27-30
Self denial as taught by Jesus is liberating from things that stress us in life
When we care for others, we experience joy and satisfaction
II. To find reason to rejoice in time of suffering and difficulties – Phil 2:25-30 (Epaphroditus)
John 16:33
Problems in this world are short and temporary
Don’t let them rob you of your joy
Do you want to give more attention to others… find a reason to rejoice in time of suffering
Do you want to find a reason to rejoice in time of difficulties… think of others, not just yourself
