John 15:5---I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.
You must never give
up growing. You must never use your age, your circumstances, your problems, or
any part of your life as an excuse not to grow each day. One of the problems
with growing is that growing as a person is often both slow and difficult. We
normally grow in wisdom and in truth by accumulating tiny bits of wisdom on a
daily basis. We may have a life-changing experience that dramatically changes
our life, but we normally grind out our life one day after another with little
sense of our growth…if we have any sense about our growth at all. Our lack of
sense about growing is why we must commit to growing each day. We must commit
our life to growing by seeking daily wisdom and truth about God. We must commit
our life to growing by seeking daily wisdom about others. We must commit our
life to growing by seeking daily wisdom to reach out and touch the lives of
others. We should commit our life to growing so we can enrich the lives of
others in all kinds of ways. In our daily life, we should grow by loving God
more. We should grow by more effectively conquering our obstacles each day for
God and for others rather than for ourselves.
