Examining Ourselves as a Way of Life
“But each one must examine his own work, and then he will have reason for boasting, but to himself alone, and not to another.” — Galatians 6:4 (NASB 1995)
Children learn quickly to look at what others are doing—especially when they feel behind or unnoticed. But the Spirit teaches us to look inward first.
Let’s help our families grow in self-examination, not self-comparison. This trains hearts to care more about obedience than applause.
Faithfulness is measured not by others—but by the Word and the Spirit within.
Family Talk:
- What does it mean to “examine your own work”?
- Why is it better than comparing ourselves to others?
Prayer:
Holy Spirit, help our family walk in integrity. Teach us to examine our hearts and obey You with joy. Amen.

I’m a follower of Christ, learning daily to walk the narrow path laid out in His Word. Through Rooted & Raised: Anchoring Women & Children in Christ, I simply seek to point others back to Scripture, tested by the Holy Spirit, lived out in faith, and anchored in truth.
● This space isn’t about lofty theology or grand platforms. It’s about humble obedience, Kingdom living, and helping others, especially women and families, rediscover the kind of faith that bears fruit, costs something, and reflects the love of Christ. My heart is to encourage others as I learn, grow, and surrender alongside them.
