Key Takeaways 🔥 1. Resolutions Focus on Willpower — God Focuses on Stewardship Resolutions usually sound like: “I’ll try harder.” “I’ll be more disciplined.” “This year will be different.” But willpower fades. Motivation lies.God never asked you to white-knuckle your way into obedience. He asks you to manage what you’ve been given. Time.Energy.Money.Gifts.Capacity.
