I Still Do!

Relationship Inventory

If you find yourself feeling disconnected and unsatisfied, take a moment to complete this Relationship Inventory. Allow the Holy Spirit to show you areas you may be neglecting. And be encouraged! I believe as you prioritize life-giving relationships, you will begin a journey of finding genuine fulfillment.

• How is my relationship with God? Is it my top priority? Am I spending quality time alone with my Creator? Am I aware of His presence in the busyness of my day?
• How is my relationship with my husband? Does he know he is the most important human relationship in my life? Am I putting unrealistic expectations on him? What adjustments should I make?
• How are my relationships with my children? Are our interactions healthy and nurturing? During conflict, am I allowing the Holy Spirit to guide me to intervene in or step away from the situation?
• Am I taking time for relationships with my friends? Is there a woman I can learn from? Do I enjoy healthy peer relationships? Am I available to help someone else in her journey? Do I take time to invest in the lives of women who have yet to accept Jesus as their Savior?

“Above all, love each other deeply” (1 Peter 4:8, NIV).
