Presenting ...
... a weekly letter of encouragement.
13 August, 1997 - Singapore
Good Morning!
I AM SLIPPING+...
- When I begin to act as if genuine joy is dependent on the state
of the circumstances surrounding me.
- When I begin to lose the distinct aroma of the fragrance of
Christ in my life.
- When I begin to feel or act as if my self-worth and acceptance
is dependent on how well I perform.
- When I am losing my grip on the reality of spiritual warfare.
Then I begin to treat my brother or my fellow human being
as my enemy and seek to do battle with fleshly weapons.
- When I act as if victory or success depends on me and my ability
rather than on the adequacy of God and the power of the Holy
Spirit.
- When I place undue emphasis on programming and planning to
the exclusion of His direction, leading and guidance.
- When more time is spent in the "activities arena"
than in the prayer closet.
- When the praises of men and women become more important than
the approval of God.
- When relating to and caring for people is less important than
programs, planning, meetings, and budgets.
- When I assume responsibility to worry and fret over things
and people that God in His sovereignty and power would take
charge of (if I would allow Him to do so).
- When my rights become more important than God's will and way.
My prayer is that you are having a great week.
