Newspaper Page TextWeekly Devotional BY REV. DON FOLSOM Paator, Firat Baptist Church Many businessmen are in the midst of the job of taking inven tory, or as it is sometimes called “taking stock.” It is important to do this in order to determine where the business stands. This is just good business. The same principle holds true of life. It is good to check up on one’s self occasionally. Sometimes people are so busy seeing the faults of others that they have no time to look in the mirror of God’s word to see their own failings. So in this last week of the last month of the old year let’s do a little checking up on ourselves. 1. How much time do I spend in prayer and Bible Study each week? 2. What is there in my life that I am not willing to yield to the Lord? .‘t. How much do I actually give to the Lord’s work each month? 4. Am 1 praying and working for the salvation of anyone in particular? 5. What is there in my life that might he a stumbling block to someone else? 7. Am I doing more or less for the Lord than I did a year ago? 7. Am I using my time wisely for His glory? 8. What is my greatest weak ness and source of temptation? 9. Whnt does the Lord want me to do for Him this year? There are other questions that will come to mind as you search your heart. As you face these questions prayerfully, God will give you the answer. He will help you grow stronger in becoming the person you really want to be.
