The Values Checklist

There are so many things written in the Bible that gives us an idea as to how a true Christian must act. Here are 10 simple ones and check if you are able to live out these values of the Kingdom:

• Love God first and foremost, trusting Him for your future.
• Turn the other cheek, giving up your right to be right, to be understood.
• Go the second mile, volunteering to do more without waiting to be asked.
• Care for the poor and needy, showing compassion with no strings attached.
• Love your enemies, lavishing mercy on those who wish you ill.
• Pray for your persecutors, blessing them in the name of Jesus.
• Forgive your offenders, keeping no record of wrongs.
• Mend shattered relationships, no matter who's right or wrong.
• Be salt and light, dare to be different, dare to be the change you want to see.
• Do to others as you would have them do to you.

Well, I didn't pass this checklist but it is nice to know that I am a work in progress in God's eyes. Everyday, you and I are given the opportunity to be more Christ-like. As we journey this life, let us continue to seek the Kingdom and knowing Christ more and more each day.
