I ran across something that has helped me to examine my walk with God and thought I would share it. Certainly examination or awareness alone does no good, it does serve to make one aware, but it must be followed up with action!
Here is what helped me:
"If you were arrested for being a Christian, would they have enough evidence to convict you?"
Wow! Would they infact have enough evidence to convict me or would I be found "not guilty" of acting on what I profess?
James 1:22 Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says.
