One way to gauge your progress as a person who wants to follow Jesus is to ask whether or not you engage with God every day. Do you instinctively turn to God as a habit and include Him as a normal part of your life? When we understand God makes movement toward us every day, it makes perfect sense for us to make movement toward Him.

How would you answer it?
Many people are surprised to discover God thinks good thoughts toward them. Read Psalm 139:17-18. Put in your own words the good thoughts God is thinking about you.
Read Psalm 55:17, 63:1, 6. What do you notice about the Psalmist’s pattern of engagement with God? What do you do daily to engage with God?
We sometimes refer to daily time with God as a “quiet time.” What is

Giving generously means recognizing that God has given us gifts, talents, possessions, time, and influence to use for His purposes. We are merely stewards of what we have—it all belongs to God. Giving well means giving with open hands and hearts, trusting God to meet our needs. We experience life when we give well.

Relationships are central to the Christian Faith. The two greatest commandments in all of scripture are rooted in relationship – love God, love others. Jesus said that all of the words and laws of the Bible could be reduced to our need to love God and others. Indeed, everything He did was an act of love for His Father and love for people. Jesus invested well in relationships. When we follow Him, so can we.

Healthy? Hurting? Are you investing the way you would like in your relationships? Why or why not?
Think of three people who have invested in you in different areas or at different times in your life. What did they see in you? What influence did they make for you? What do they mean to you?
The thread of relationships is woven throughout the tapestry of scripture. Remove this thread and the whole thing falls apart. Think of some of the major relationships that we see throughout the scripture. What different kinds
