Resolutions are strategic reminders for our repentant hearts. As Christians, they should be set in place to progress of the will of God in our lives.

Living our full truth out loud comes from bravely walking within our God-placed purpose. Comparing our lives to those around us, and the mold of societal acceptance, chokes our ability to live uninhibited. But life exposed to the Light sets us free.
