Commitment to Personal Growth



We are called to commit ourselves as disciples. Disciples are learners. We should never reach a point in life at which we are no longer learners. We never reach a point in life at which we have arrived. On this side of heaven, no one is perfect. Even Paul said about himself in Phil. 3:12;

Not that I have already obtained it or have already become perfect, but I press on so that I may lay hold of that for which also I was laid hold of by Christ Jesus.

The truth is that most believers have never reached past the point of feeding on milk when they should be ready for meat. Again, Paul says in 1 Corinthians 3:2;

I gave you milk to drink, not solid food; for you were not yet able to receive it. Indeed, even now you are not yet able.

Make a commitment to continue to grow spiritually. Take positive steps to do so. Start a Bible reading plan. Set aside time each day to pray. Read good Christian books. Use the internet to find good sites that will food your soul and not your flesh. Never give up on learning.
