Jesus makes a difference in a person's life. It is because Jesus is not only a ideal concerning life but life itself. The Bible says that in Jesus is life and that life is the light of humankind:John 1:4. Even more, Jesus is able to bring life to those who believe in Him. He promises a life of abundance to those who call upon him to save: John 10:10. He did not come to judge the world, but that through him the world may be brought to the light of God: John 12:46-50. As people move into 2011 they face a world filled with contradictions. The future can be something that hurts us or something that benefits us. The difference that Jesus makes is that for those who believe in Him and regard Him as their savior, for them the future is an opportunity to "Be all that we can Be".
