Top 5: High Points & Trial Points

In the Promise Keepers workbook, The Making of A Godly Man, the author proposes an exercise to chart your life's five greatest "high points" and life's five greatest "trial points."

Can I make the stereotype that we are not inclined to a great deal of introspection? But I believe there is value in taking time to look back at our lives to identify times and places where God has walked with us. Sometimes it is on the mountain top. Other times it is in the valley.

We have a Creator who joins us in the journey -- and I look forward to hearing your own testimony of how He has proved Himself faithful in your life.

Is there any way to know if any of these "Godly Men" are single? Maybe I'm in the wrong blog. ;) hp

Heather,

Thanks for identifying a new ministry opportunity! But I think I'll leave that up to someone else to coordinate.

Cordially, Eric

Have you ever had someone tell you to keep your testimony current? Reason being, it helps the listener relate to God's move in your most current affairs of life. I've considered the value of that advice yet marvel at the power of God's Word and the ancient testimonies we draw encouragement from on a weekly basis. If there was no value in looking back, God's Word would be of no "real" value. After all, most of it is recounting the stories of His dealings with people long gone. Dwelling on the past...now, that's another topic entirely!
God is faithful!
