“Live in me. Make your home in me just as I do in you. In the same way that a branch can’t bear grapes by itself but only by being joined to the vine, you can’t bear fruit unless you are joined with me.”
John 15:4
I am making my home in Christ assessment question
When Dallas Willard was asked how he measures spiritual growth. Willard replied, “I ask
- Am I growing more or less easily irritated these days?
- Am I growing more or less loving these days?
When I am in tune with the spirit, my soul doesn’t sense as much irritation, and when I am criticized, I am not feeling discouraged. If peace is growing in me, I am less easily discouraged. If love is growing in me, I am less easily irritated.
How would you answer these questions?
