Inventories are as important for me as they are at work.

I was reading a morning family devotional and found at the bottom of the page --

Being a Christian for me is not always singing how wonderful. It is being convicted and getting on the path, doing next right thing. (Or not doing something like sugar)It also for me involves being wrong, feeling guilty or sad (insert your own scene from Inside Out)
It is not about shame.


22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law

So are you trying to inventory the fruit of the spirit in yourself? For myself, I had to realize that being a Christian doesn't mean feeling happy all the time. I am depressed most of the time, that's a matter of brain chemicals.
