3 Most Important Things in Growing in God

You’ve heard it over and over, I’m sure: when you buy a house, the three most important things are:

  1. Location

  2. Location

  3. Location

OK. Seems pretty important.

The same is true for growing in God. The three most important things are:

  1. Relationship

  2. Relationship

  3. Relationship

There’s no getting around it.

You may say, “Wait a minute, Nancy! What about love? What about Scripture? What about prayer and church?”

Oh, no, I’m not forgetting. All of these serve to nurture the relationship that God called us into when He dreamed of us. Crafted us. Breathed His life-giving breath into us.

“Look at you. Just look at you. Let me love you and lead your life, dear child,” He tenderly says to each of us.

Relationship is central to God. He’s not interested in your rules and religion. He’s not impressed or warmed by them. He also knows how twisted and screwed up you’ve been. How wayward and nasty you can be.

None of that scares Him away.

He’s interested in you turning to Him and letting Him love you to wholeness. How incredibly kind of Him.

 

IN CHRIST,
