The Courage to Grow

Plants, whether new sprouts or 1,000-year-old redwoods, ocean-dwelling or hanging right here on this wall, need the same four components present to grow. They need sunlight, air, water, and nutrients, otherwise they’re sure to wither away.

Spiritually, we need the right nourishment too, and we get it from the Word through which all things were made, the air breathed by our Creator, the living water of the Holy Spirit, the light that shines in the darkness, which the darkness could not overcome. Jesus, himself, is our source of life.
