1. Open your Bible – The Bible is living ground on which to meet God. From the pages of His book, He speaks to us and invites us to move in closer to His heart.

2. Say a prayer – Getting on our knees changes our perspective in amazing ways.

3. Take a God walk – Psalm 19 tells us “the heavens declare the glory of God.” It doesn’t matter what season it is, what the weather is like, or what time of day it is, creation lifts a chorus of praise that beckons us to join in.

4. Hug a friend – The people we love help us see God in their kindness, laughter, acceptance, and goodness. Each special relationship in our lives is a blessing that God intends to be a reminder of the relationship He wants to share with us.

5. Watch a child – The innocent play of a child frames a picture of faith that is worth holding on to.

6. Eat some chocolate – Let its sweetness remind you of God’s compelling call to “taste and see that the Lord is good.” (Psalm 34:8)

7. Wash your hands – As the soap and water run over your hands, thank God for the way that He washes you clean through the blood of Jesus. Rub your hands together and remember that He has your name engraved on the palms of His hands. (Isaiah 49:16)

8. Sing a song – What is your favorite God song? Sing it out loud – in the shower, in your car, in the middle of your living room – and watch how it lifts your eyes to the Father’s face.

9. Be quiet for five full minutes – “Be still, and know that I am God.” (Psalm 46:10)

10. Look in the mirror – God is working in your life to create the image of Christ in you. That is what The Jesus Resolution is all about. Don’t sell yourself short. When God sees you, He sees Jesus. So do I.
