Measure yourself on These following attitudes – 1 bein low and 4 being high:
- I have come to the place where I can enter into the feelings of someone who is hurting, lonely, or distressed and feel alongside them in their pain. God has given me a sensitivity for the suffering of others.
- The ability to pick up on the hurt and pain of others and be present without being pushy or nosy.
- I have come to the place where I don’t have to be the strong one all the time , I can be tender and gentle with people. I’ve given over control of my life to God and I don’t have to “win” all the time.
- The ability to be tender because you are inwardly strong and to lead without overpowering others.
- I have come to the place where I can really feel the empty places in my life. I can let others know when I am hurting and share the grief of others without embarrassment. I can weep like Jesus did.
- The ability to feel what others feel, to laugh and cry with others.
- I have come to the place where I want to know God and His will for my life more than anything. I am mor excited about God’s will for the world than my own financial gain, success in my life, or acceptance by my peers. I long for God’s perspective in my decision-making.
- The ability to maintain spiritual priorities and to cause others to seek a deeper walk with God.
