Testing your Leadership Ability - Leadership ability can mean the combination of your ability to maximize others' potential and your ability to define and move toward a goal. Here is one great option for an online test to help you measure this: http://www.mindtools.com/... After taking the short test, you will be provided with a summary and suggestions for improvement in several key areas of leadership. You can also look at a test which helps you determine if you are growing in the areas that are important to God: Link to document. This measurement is essential for Christian leaders who realize that God constantly provides tests for us in everyday life which should lead us to a deeper commitment to Him and to His purposes.

Thank you for the good responses to this test! Here are some of the areas you(we) are having difficulty: not trusting God, not knowing what He wants me to do, not being responsible for my commitments (words and actions), not being faithful with my resources, not being patient, not feeling close to God (not having time to work at this!), not being able or willing to forgive, not sure if God can even use me.
Do any of these sound familiar? All of them are areas in which I have struggled as well but we are growing together. Remember that God uses each difficult situation in your life to help you depend more on Him. He wants to be your strength and you can't depend on Him if you depend on yourself!
