Time to Grow Up!!!!

Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will. - Romans 12:2


Like newborn babies, crave pure spiritual milk, so that by it you may grow up in your salvation, now that you have tasted that the Lord is good. - 1 Peter 2:2-3

There are so many hearts crying out for the truth that will set them free. You are important to God and He wants to manifest His Presence through you, to those around you. Don't hesitate. Start small. Remember, God will test you in the little daily things before giving you larger tasks. It is time to move from the Milk of the WORD and towards becoming Spiritually Mature.

In our spiritual life, we are hesitant to get off the milk that tastes so good, and move to the meat of the Word. In many other areas of our life we are passionate, this could be our craft, trade, cars, boats, houses, etc. We need to conform our lives to the Living Word, so we can fulfill our greater purpose on Earth as it is in Heaven, which may include these items.

We need a desire for Passionate Spiritual Formation that draws us into deeper wells of living water. Help someone drink from the life giving water, that they will never thirst again. You, have been chosen by God to be a ladle for individuals to drink from wells of living water.

Questions for Reflection:

How healthy is my Spiritual Formation in Him?
Am I moving from the Milk to the Meat?
Am I Passionate for HIM?
Who am I conforming to?
How renewed is my MIND?
Am I a LADLE people want to drink from?
What kind of water do I offer?
