What is Growth?

This quote is probably true.  What does one grow in?  What does one change?  I always associate it with occupation and school.   I might be changing a lot.  I have new ideas all the time.  I want to lessen my ego.  I want to improve my health.  I want to adopt more Christ like attributes.  Do I need to go to a painting class?

I have learned a few things this past year.  1. Don’t judge (just don’t) 2. Ego is pride (diminishing it brings you closer to Christ. 3. The Law without Grace produces Sin.  4. Waiting on the Lord is good.  5. Love is more important than all other things. 6. Our country is denying the Christ (Trumpism (Ego and bigotry) and Socialism (the desire for the government (transfer payments) to take care you since you don’t BELIEVE that God will help you). 7. Meekness brings power.



"If we don't change, we don't grow. If we don't grow, we are not really living. Growth demands a temporary surrender of security." - Gail Sheehy
