Everyday presents us with the opportunity for new growth. The journey is certainly a process of GROWTH! Nothing grows without some type of source providing it the very thing it needs to thrive and grow. Personal growth is necessary, exciting and costly. To stay comfortable and dig in our heals right where we are is DEADLY. To choose to die in the painful stretching would be forfeiting ALL that God has for us! Growth comes in different ways. It can come thru experiences or circumstances. Some may be good and some may be difficult. I have found in my own life that deep growth in my walk with Jesus has come thru the very challenging or painful times in my journey. BUT the good or the fruit that comes from that is a desperation for HIM that desires to go deeper. It must go deeper or we will not make it! Been there? I have many times. One thing I have always said along the way is that their are times I dislike the process very much. I do not like pain or discomfort. I do not like injustice or when things happen that are out of my control. I love when my little world is balanced, peaceful and everyone is getting along. I know. I hear you. Totally unrealistic. That's how my world looks in my "Pink Bubble". Just keeping it real! Can you relate? It is in these times that most of our greatest growth can take place. The other thing I say is that the process is necessary and I MUST embrace it! Help me Jesus!
