The Refreshing Spring - Sober Self-Awareness



For by the grace given me I say to every one of you: Do not think of yourself more highly than you ought, but rather think of yourself with sober judgment, in accordance with the faith God has distributed to each of you.
-- Romans 12:3



  • Today, I will see myself in the light of truth.
  • I am not bound by what I think others think of me; in fact, I reject the stories I create in my head about what others are thinking.
  • I take seriously the feedback I receive from others about my behavior while not letting others define who I am.
  • I do not think of myself too highly or too lowly; I see myself through sober lenses.
  • I always remember that I am yet becoming the person God created me to be.
  • With every decision, I do not use my development as an excuse to choose unproductive behavior.
  • I change the things about me that need to change and accentuate the things about me that are assets to my purpose.
  • Today, I will see myself in the light of truth so that I may walk and dwell in confidence before God and in myself.

The Refreshing Spring - Reaching My Potential



  • Today, I will renew my interest in the things that help me reach my fullest potential.
  • God has provided me with unlimited resources and unlimited power but not unlimited time.
  • God's expectation of my performance is high because it is God who works through me to accomplish God's will and purpose.
  • My mind and my senses will look for excitment in the ordinary things in life.
  • I will be overjoyed at the opportunity to fight for my goals, dreams and visions.
  • I realize that the fight is first internal, then external.
  • I am pumped up to challenge myself to go beyond myself and do what I have never done before.
  • Today, I will renew my interest in the things that help me reach my fullest potential so that I may be a vessel of praise to my God with my life.
