If we don’t take inventory every once in a while
and give thanks to God for the great things He has done for us,
we get totally out of perspective.
David Jeremiah
***
Test yourselves to make sure you are solid in the faith.
Don’t drift along taking everything for granted.
Give yourselves regular checkups.
You need firsthand evidence,
not mere hearsay,
that Jesus Christ is in you.
Test it out.
If you fail the test, do something about it.
2 Corinthians 13:5 The Message

DAILY INVENTORY
*
Did I pray to know and follow God’s will today?
*
What progress did I make?
*
What weaknesses do I need to surrender to God?
*
In what ways was I kind and loving?
*
Was I able to “let go and let God?”
*
Do I need to make amends to anyone?
*
Did faith or fear control my thoughts?
*
Am I taking care of myself physically, emotionally, and spiritually?
*
What was I grateful for today?
*

Don’t suppress the Spirit,
and don’t stifle those who have a word from the Master.
On the other hand, don’t be gullible.
Check out everything, and keep only what’s good.
Throw out anything tainted with evil.
1 Thessalonians 5:21-22 The Message

“Every day, I try to remember all the ways I am blessed,
beyond the chaos and bad things that happen.
I take inventory and remember the wonderful people who love me.”
