Choosing to Grow up


Satan would love nothing more than to stunt your spiritual growth by clipping your roots in times of trial. But he doesn’t get to decide that! Everything he means for evil, God can (and will) turn to our good! Whatever it is you are facing, decide today to trust that He who began the good work is faithful to complete it. Grow!

Conclusion

Whatever it is you are facing, decide today to trust that He who began the good work is faithful to complete it. Grow! He who is within you is greater than he that is in the world! Be intentional about praising the Lord, even through the trials. And reject bitterness, envy, and wrath from taking root in your heart. Rather root yourself in love, in joy, in peace . . . in Him!
