Growth

“But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To Him be glory both now and forever! Amen.”
2 Peter 3:18

Are you continuing to grow in your love and knowledge of the Lord, or are you “satisfied” with the current state of your spiritual health? Your relationship with God is ongoing; it unfolds day by day, and it offers countless opportunities to grow closer to Him or not! As each new day unfolds, you are confronted with a wide range of decisions: how you will behave, where you will direct your thoughts, with whom you will associate and what you will choose to worship. These choices, along with many others like them, are yours and yours alone. How you choose determines how your relationship with God will unfold.

Hopefully, you’re committed to being a growing follower of Jesus Christ. Your Lord and Savior is calling you to follow Him, to trust Him and to be spiritually stretched day after day. Growing in Christ is the most difficult, courageous, exhilarating and eternally important work any of us will ever do. Will you accept this invitation?

Prayer
Dear Heavenly Father, thank You for the opportunity to walk with Your Son. And, thank You for the opportunity to grow closer to You each day. You have blessed me with many gifts and abilities and I pray that I use them to glorify You and point others to You. Thank You for the person I am and for the person I can become. Empower me by Your Holy Spirit to be the growing servant You desire. I pray this in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
