There are 3 Steps in our relationship with Christ:
1. Spiritual Infancy - We basically need someone to feed us God's word and help us along in our walk with God because we can't do it on our own. we need someone to clean up after our mistakes because we're spiritually infants and just walk around making messes.
2. Spiritual Adolescence - We basically get a little more self sufficient on feeding ourselves God's word. only fault is that adolescents usually think they're smarter than they actually are. lol
3. Spiritual Maturity - We have a level of stability and maturity and consistency that isn't ruled by emotion, but by logic and deep thinking.
"When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put childish ways behind me." 1 Corinthians 13:11
"If you're not growing up, you're not growing."
this message really spoke to me...i can't keep waiting for someone to feed me god. i have to go out and find him for myself. i have to grow up spiritually. i have to grow up mentally.
i gotta grow up.
