Resolved -1-

"Resolved, that I will live so, as I shall wish I had done when I come to die."
- Jonathan Edwards

Jonathan Edwards, the renown 18th Century American preacher, theologian, and pastor, early in his ministry made resolutions as to how he would live his life. He made 70 resolutions which he continued to review as it guided the course of his life and ministry. His 17th resolution states that he resolved to live such that when he dies, he would have no regrets before God (my paraphrase).

On my 37th Birthday, I too resolved to live my life such that when I come before the face of Jesus, I will have no regrets.
