“But you, keep your head in all situations, endure hardship, do the work of an evangelist, discharge all the duties of your ministry.” (2 Tim 4:5)
4 questions to “walk the border of your property”
- In what situation do I need to keep my head? Keep sober-minded?
- Where do I need to endure? (Romans 8:23 - groan vs grumble)
- Who do I need to reach out to?
- To fulfill my ministry …
- Review
- my mission / values
- my roles
- Grasp the wholeness of life
- Ask the Holy Spirit if there is anything to which I need to pay attention to in any of these roles this coming week.
- my AMP (Annual Ministry Plan) and my IGP (Individual Growth Plan)
- Refocus
- Evaluate this past week
- Set goals for next week
- Resource
- What do I need to live my values, accomplish my goals, achieve my mission?
- Is my pace sustainable?
