Growing in Christ
“Let that abide in you which you heard from the beginning.
If what you heard from the beginning abides in you, you also
will abide in the Son and in the Father.”
1 JOHN 2:24
There is still much of Him to learn and to experience. There is much
growing which must take place. The Path is a process. We are hardly ever
as far along as we imagine ourselves to be. But we have not been
talking about spiritual maturity, but spiritual satisfaction. If, in
abiding continually in the Lord, He becomes our food and our drink, then
we will grow.
Growth is not the result of time, it is the natural result of Christ
increasing and us decreasing. The Law of Life says that Christ must
increase. Now we can do nothing to speed up this process, but we can
certainly hinder or quench it.
