Everything good comes from God! Sometimes, we need to remind ourselves of this truism, do some self-evaluation, humble ourselves, and ask ourselves a few questions, like:
- Am I genuinely striving each day to do God’s will, God’s way?
- Am I drawing closer to God by including Him in prayer, in the words I use, and by my deeds?
- Is my attitude reflecting compassion, love, and understanding towards others?
- Are the majority of my thoughts selfless or consumed by self?
- What have I or will I do today to show God my appreciation and thanks for all the good He provides in my life?
When we follow Jesus ‘His’ way, there is no need for regret; there is, however, peace that surpasses all understanding to guard our hearts and the assurance of eternal life in heaven with our creator.
Regardless of our circumstances, we can trust in God and count it all Joy.
“Examine yourselves, to see whether you are in the faith. Test yourselves. Or do you not realize this about yourselves, that Jesus Christ is in you?—unless indeed you fail to meet the test! I hope you will find out that we have not failed the test.” 2 Corinthians 13:5-6 ESV
