Am 1 making progress in Spiritual things? Am 1 a growing Christian? Am 1 better this year than last? Is Jesus more real to me? Can my friends see any difference in me? Are the old weaknesses and failings of the flesh disappearing, and is the fruit of the Spirit becoming increasingly mine?"

Am 1 making progress against sin, especially my besetting sin? Has it been conquered, the sin that at one time conquered me? Do 1 want to be delivered from it? Is there still some cherished idol shutting out His peace and power, His
presence, sunshine and love?

We often testify that Jesus satisfies. But suppose we turn it around and ask, "Is He satisfied?" For all that is important is our Lord's estimate of us. Has He been disappointed, or are we pleasing in His sight? What does God think of me?
