Obedienceნიმუში

In nature, growth comes as the result of health and nourishment. Plants and animals have to follow the laws of the Creator in order to grow healthy, strong and beautiful. The same principles apply to spiritual growth. Similarly, our spiritual growth depends on our health, and our health depends on our obedience to God’s rules. We can never bloom into our full potential unless we are obedient in doing what God’s Word says (James 1:25).

Obedience to God’s plan is rarely easy. It often requires us to do the last thing we ever wanted to do. It may mean wrestling with unruly emotions, overcoming prejudices and preconceived notions, or even humbling ourselves before God and pleading with Him for the strength to carry on. But if we are to grow into the people He has in mind for us to be, we have to obey. So, commit yourself today to a life of obedience to God, and start experiencing the spiritual health you desire.

What is an area of my life where I need to be more obedient?
