Growing Your Relationship with Christ
Since we are on the Eve of celebration of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, here’s a question for you. Are you living in growth mode with your relationship with Christ? What I mean is, are you actively reading, meditating and growing your relationship with God?Let’s be honest, none of us are going truly going to “get there” with our relationship until we meet Jesus face to face. In the mean time though, we need to be trying to actively apply what we are learning to our everyday lives and bear some fruit. We are called to grow in Christ and abide in Him. But don’t worry, God’s got a whole heck of a lot more patience than we have. He’s going to love on us as our faith grows and He’s going to be patient with us. So give yourself a break and be patient with yourself and others who are growing in their faith.

Finding True Balance Through God's Grace
Ever thought about what it means to have a good balance in your life? Have you ever sought to find it?
