Based on Jonathan Edward's resolutions I have written 25 of my
own (Edwards had too many and they were written in old English). I have spent a
few years meditating on them and they have been a great help. Maybe they will
edify and inspire you. Here is number 4:
I am resolved ...
To endeavour to discover
worthy objects in my sphere for charity and liberality. To give cheerfully
where I am able - and even occasionally so that it hurts - that I might know
that I am no slave to the pursuit of wealth or happiness.
