10 Questions to Ask Yourself at the Start of the New Year:
(Most of these are from Donald Whitney's site: spiritualdisciplines.org)
1. What is one thing I could do this year to increase my enjoyment of God?
2. What is the most humanly impossible thing I will ask God to do this year?
3. In which spiritual discipline do I most want to make progress in this year, and what will I do about it?
4. What is the single biggest time-waster in my life, and how will I change to make the most of my time?
5. What can I do this year to strengthen my church?
6. For whose salvation will I pray most fervently for this year?
7. What one thing could I do to improve my prayer life this year?
8. What thing that I plan to do this year will matter most in ten years? In eternity?
9. What sin do I want to avoid this year, and what steps will I take to avoid it?
10. How can I be a better husband/wife/father/mother/son/daughter this year?
BONUS Question: What person(s) do I need to share my answers to these questions with in order to keep me accountable?

Great questions Justin! It's also a great time of year to review Edwards' resolutions.
Great Questions! If I were you, I would frame this questions and put on your desk as a daily reminder and two wonderful godly elders that can remind you of this too.
I do need print out this questions too, but I have to rewrite it for me as a woman and not a man.
We all need reminder daily to be more Christ-Like.
I just wrote a comment in other blog about New Years' Resolutions.
I wrote something like this. It is not easy to surrender all to Him (My Potter) since I (I am His clay) can be selfish when I shouldn't be.
Thank you for being a wonderful godly pastor with a big heart for Christ Alone.
Hungry to eat His Word,
