How Is Your Spiritual Life Going?
“How is your spiritual life going?”
I used to answer this question by looking at the state of my devotional activities: Did I pray and read the Bible enough today? The problem is that by this measure the Pharisees always win. People can be very disciplined, but remain proud and spiteful. How do we measure spiritual growth so that the Pharisees don’t win?
-John Ortberg, The Me I Want to Be, p. 21
