A Vision (Me)

11/28/11...Well I took the challenge given to myself. Put myself on a spiritual vision roadmap. Below is the result. The points in the web are the 10 things that come to mind when thinking about my walk. As I relect on this, the first thought that comes to my mind is hmmm...if a 5 in each web is to be like Christ, and at 44 years of age this is where I see myself, then what is this saying about me? I guess, maybe one is this. Christ was the perfect human sent to me to give me an example of what living for God's glory means. God sent Him as my 5. Two, because of my pride, I probably overscored myself which means I am even closer to a 0 or 1 on all the webs more than I care to admit. Three, I will say it makes me want to be better, not necessarily do better, because all power is in yielding to the Spirit within me. I can do nothing to my Father's glory apart from the Spirit. Anything I do is in vain. Fourth, I also must say this was an interesting exercise to do. Fifth, if I ever score myself 4 on humility, then that means I am not humble and therefore am really a 1, or probably a 0 because I have no humility if I rank myself a 4. I laugh at this paradox.

Last of all, I put the two greatest commandments on this radar map, and when I look at how I self-assessed myself, I must say I am a little distraught.
