Don Whitney's 10 Questions to Diagnose Your Spiritual Health, from the book of the same name:
1. Do you thirst for God?
2. Are you governed increasingly by God's Word?
3. Are you more loving?
4. Are you more sensitive to God's presence?
5. Do you have a growing concern for the spiritual and
temporal needs of others?
temporal needs of others?
6. Do you delight in the bride of Christ?
7. Are the spiritual disciplines increasingly important to you?
8. Do you still grieve over sin?
9. Are you a quicker forgiver?
10. Do you yearn for heaven and to be with Jesus?
Just to add: These questions help diagnose. But "trying harder" is not the prescription. Behold and believe.
