Topic: Time
To Grow Up
For every person, whether Christian or not, it is time to grow up spiritually. It is
always a time to mature, for all of us have room to grow. All of us have untapped
spiritual potential. For all of us, it is time to get off the baby bottle. In growing
spiritually, there is good news and there is bad news. The bad news is you may live your
life on this earth and always be poor, sick, downtrodden, meek, humble, and a failure in
the eyes of the world. The good news is that in the eyes of Christ, you can be poor, sick,
downtrodden, meek, humble, and a failure in the eyes of the world and still be His most
important lamb on earth. The good news is that no matter what the exterior appearances of
your life might be like, God's presence changes everything in your life from the inside
out. No matter how your life appears on the outside, you can still be full of the love of
God. No matter how things appear to others, you can still be happy, fulfilled, and
overflowing with joy. The sufferings of life may take away some of the joy for the moment,
but God's eternal joy remains. The poverty of life may grind you down for the moment, but
the eternal wealth of God's love remains forever and ever. The devastation put upon you by
Satan may empty your heart for the moment, but the fulfilling love of Christ fills your
heart for eternity.
