If God’s Spirit lives in me, where is the proof that I am changing? Let’s test ourselves with these questions to evaluate our growth and change: Are you aware of your sin and do you seek God’s forgiveness? Do you enjoy being with other believers? Are you eager to study the Bible? Has prayer become a lifestyle? Does your heart sing when you consider God’s grace and love? Do you want to talk to others about what Jesus has done for you? Have you found a new boldness in speaking for Christ? Are you surprising yourself with changed desires? Are you seeking ways to help others? Do you see fruit developing in your life? Are your attitudes changing? Do you complain less and give thanks to God more? Is obedience to God the overwhelming desire of your life? If you have answered “yes,” this is your proof. Be encouraged—God’s Spirit lives in you. 

Bible Reading

2 Corinthians 13:5-6 NIV
Examine yourselves to see whether you are in the faith; test yourselves. Do you not realize that Christ Jesus is in you—unless, of course, you fail the test? And I trust that you will discover that we have not failed the test.
