Am I Growing?

Healthy things grow, and growing things change, and changing things change things.

So then, just as you received Christ Jesus as Lord, continue to live your lives in him, rooted and built up in him, strengthened in the faith as you were taught, and overflowing with thankfulness. (Colossians 2:6-7, NIV)

GOD LOVES GROWING THINGS!

Who or what am I becoming? Where am I going? The goal of my life is to live for the Glory of God alone, not for personal success. I cultivate the soil, faithfully plant, and faithfully water. It is God who causes the growth.

  • Healthy things grow.
  • Growth leads to change.
  • Change leads to challenge.
  • Challenge leads to trusting God.
  • Trusting God leads to obedience.
  • Obedience leads to healthy faith.
  • Health lets us grow.

This list is from a sermon by Tom Vander Well (tomvanderwell.com).

Blessed is the one … whose delight is in the law of the Lord, and who meditates on his law day and night. That person is like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither. (Psalm 1 :2-3, NIV)
