Grow - Lent Photo Challenge

Grow…

To grow something is a process.  You are not able to put a seed into the ground and the next day a beautiful flower will be in bloom or an ear of corn will be on a corn stalk.  The growing process is one that requires numerous things in order for the seed to become a plant.  There is a need for soil, warmth, water, nutrients, and time.  Without all of those things the chances of a seed growing into a plant that produces something is not real good. 

The same goes for our relationship with Christ.  Without a number of “things” the relationship does not develop and grow.  Christ is there for us but if we don’t spend time in scripture it is hard to know who He is.  Communication is an integral piece to a relationship so we need to be in prayer as well as taking time to listen to Him.  Growth occurs through worship too.  If we simply sit back and do nothing our relationship will not grow.  2 Peter 3:18 – “But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.  To Him be the glory both now and to the day of eternity. Amen”.  Grow in His grace and knowledge.  Spend time with the Lord and nurture the relationship He wants with you.
