What would be the heart of a parent who sees their child not growing up?
I think God will feel the same way when He looks at Christians who are not maturing.
The characteristics of an infant like christian are they get envious and they live following their worldly desires.
Even if they have a lot of knowledge, gifts and are leaders in areas of ministry, if they live this way they are still mere infants.
It is God’s earnest desires to see christians mature.
What do I need in order to become a mature christian?
Passage to read: Ephesians 4:7-16
13 until we all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God and become mature, attaining to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ.
14 Then we will no longer be infants, tossed back and forth by the waves, and blown here and there by every wind of teaching and by the cunning and craftiness of people in their deceitful scheming.
15 Instead, speaking the truth in love, we will grow to become in every respect the mature body of him who is the head, that is, Christ.
16 From him the whole body, joined and held together by every supporting ligament, grows and builds itself up in love, as each part does its work.
1. Did you think of Jesus when you woke up this morning?
2. What is God’s message to you?
3. What do you need to obey?
4. What are you grateful for today?
