It’s a funny thing about life, once you begin to take note of the things you are grateful for, you begin to lose sight of the things that you lack.

dragadiddle:

She’s cute and all, but does she love Jesus? And if she says she does, does she bear fruit that proves that? Does she have the desire to forsake everything for Christ? Is Christ her all in all? What does it meant to her to lose her material possessions, family, friends, spouse, and/or children for the sake of Christ? Does she repent? Is she absorbed with her appearance? Does she understand the vanity of worldly things, and if so, does her life reflect that? Is she kind? Is she sensitive to others or is she consumed with herself? Is Scripture her authority over her feelings? Does she understand the purpose of money and able to handle it wisely with an eternal perspective? Is she passive in life or is she intentional with every move she makes, thinking towards what impact it would make for the Kingdom? Does she trust not in her own strength, but gives 110%, while resting in God’s sovereignty trusting He works everything out for good, though at times it may not seem that way? Does she understand the importance of missions, while being active in evangelism within her immediate community or social circle? Is she consumed with the ideal of worldly living or does she count it all as rubbish for a life of being unknown and forgotten by the world to pursue faithfulness to Christ? Does she continually evaluate her affections or does she go where the wind blows her? Does she disciple others and invest into girls and women younger than her while seeking to be under the wing of someone older than her in faith? How does she handle disagreement? Does she truly consider the other side, both objectively and subjectively, or is she dogmatic in her stance? Does she cry out to the Lord in her weakness? Does she allow herself to be carried in the arms of the Living God? What is the desire of her heart? Who is the desire of her soul?
