New Year New Resolutions Part II

I have another goal, and I think it's going to be a good one. Yesterday in church my pastor started a sermon series on 2Peter and Jude. In 2 Peter 1:5-8 it says:
5 For this very reason, make every effort to add to your faith goodness; and to goodness, knowledge; 6 and to knowledge, self-control; and to self-control, perseverance; and to perseverance, godliness; 7 and to godliness, mutual affection; and to mutual affection, love. 8 For if you possess these qualities in increasing measure, they will keep you from being ineffective and unproductive in your knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Bam! Right there in front of me was a perfect goal for the new year. I've decided to study what each of these things are and what it looks like to add them to each other. I think it will be sorta fun. By doing this I hope I can become an effective and fruitful follower of Christ.
