Good Morning!
It's Tuesday and hopefully we will see y'all tonight at GEMS! Can't wait!
Lisa's tweet: LMRMinistries: Philippians 3:12-14: Relationships take time to develop fully. Your relationship w/ God will continue to grow/evolve - He doesn't expect you to be perfect.
Relationships are tough at times as we want them to grow and flourish quickly, but they all take time. Our relationship with God is not much different as Lisa said and as our scripture indicates. Even Paul said that he was not yet "there" and made perfect, but he pressed on each day for that which Christ promised. We need to do the same!
We accept Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior and begin a relationship with God the Father, Jesus the Son and the Holy Spirit - our helper. We begin to grow and our relationship begins to grow. As we read His Word, fellowship with our brothers and sisters in church, share and talk in Small Groups, spend more and more time in prayer (conversation with God), our relationship becomes stronger and we press on toward the prize that He promised - eternal life with Him - perfection.
We need to come to Him, knowing He doesn't expect perfection from the start. We, as Paul, "need to press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called us heavenward in Christ Jesus."
Let's press on! Have a great day and I will see you tonight! :o)
