Growing

It happens in every Christian's life. We can never know when or how it will happen, much more how long it will take. But when it does, there's nothing like the strength that appears afterwards. After all, growth is the best part of life.

Now true, it hurts as any growing pains do. I mean, no one wants to realize that those you called friends are no longer there for you. But that's because those friends became "God." But when they are gone, well most of them anyway, you see who really love you: God firstly, and then those who He has deemed to be the true companions that person needs. They'll never leave you.

Nor is it easy to hear the gospel truth watered down without becoming a little broken hearted. but then again, it also feeds your passion to study and share the REAL truth effectively. To be able to tell people not just about "God's love," but about His wrath, His righteous jealousy, and the inescapable fires if not repentant.

but one of the hardest things to grow through is dealing with a weak church. To see racism, hypocrisy, idolatry, and even down right ignorance flowing through the Body should make anyone part of the fellowship unbearibly depressed. No one should settle for all worship and praise services without a drop of sound teaching and doctrine. One should not think they can throw up their hands on Sunday, but then conduct their manners in any way the other six days. No one should have to watch sin engolf another's life and not act, believing it's not their responsibility. But even more, its hard to see others strive to memorize scripture and doctrines for the sake of being known as Pastor, Dr., or even just as "a good Christian." But again, without this growth, one would not have known how much more they have to go.

And with that, I end my blogging career. If you haven't realized yet, all those topics above are things I am dealing with to this day. And God has shown me that I have much more growing to do. It is time for me to take the couple of friends I have and move on towards Him. He has something better waiting for me. Goodbye all.
