Grow In Faith

Ephesians 4:14

14 No prolonged infancies among us, please. We’ll not tolerate babes in the woods, small children who are an easy mark for imposters. 15 God wants us to grow up, to know the whole truth and tell it in love-like Christ in everything. We take our lead from Christ, who is the source of everything we do. 16 He keeps us in step with each other, nourishing us so that we will grow up healthy in God, robust in love.
The Message

God looks for us to grow in faith and love. He wants us to experience and know the truth. We tell that truth when we live it. He gives us Christ as the example and the Spirit within that enables and strengthens our walk with God. We are in the woods of this world but we carry a light within that shows us the way. Following Him keeps us in step with each other as we share in the love and light with those around us. That is how we grow.

May we be strong in our walk and reflect Christ in love.
