Ezra 7:10 (New International Version)

Various commitments in life are made. An important one to consider was made by Ezra. This verse reflects the heart of a man truly committed to God and trusting in Him. Ezra studied and learned the truth of God; he lived and applied what he had learned, and he taught this truth to others. When making decisions in our everyday lives, whether personal or professional, are we truly committed to God? One of the hardest things for people to do is to evaluate themselves honestly and effectively. We, as human beings, normally do not have a problem with making assessments of other people. Oftentimes when we evaluate others, we are just pointing out their flaws, never identifying their strengths. Evaluating self is a lot more difficult because it requires being truthful about the things that we are reluctant of being transparent about. A proper or honest evaluation of self and our commitments requires a trusting relationship with God. We cannot have a relationship with God without trusting God to show us who we really are.
