My home church was vandalized over the weekend. It was truly heartbreaking to come in and see the damage. However, as we sang hymns while waiting for the police Saturday night, I was reminded of how good God is, and how the damage could be so much worse. Please pray for us as we rebuild and heal.

Accountability
How do you keep yourself accountable to walking the Christian walk? Who is it in your life that holds you accountable on behalf of the Holy Spirit?
I have two sisters in Christ that I trust who are my confidants and accountability partners. These are women that I have one-on-one discipling relationships with. We have made an agreement that no areas of our lives are off-limits to each other; we share and allow each other into every part of our lives. Outside of my relationship to my husband, these relationships are the closest that I have.
With one of these sisters I have daily accountability through shared devotionals. Each day we read My Utmost for His Highest and share our reflections over email. This has been a great help for me...if I miss a devotion, my friend knows it, and she doesn't let me get by more than a day without checking in. And vice-versa! It has grown both our personal relationship, and our relationship with Christ. I have gained so much by having these women "up in my business" as we like to say.
Do you have an accountability partner? If you do, how does that relationship work? If you don't, why not?
