Why Is Spiritual Growth Important? August 12 "Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God's mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God—this is your true and proper worship. Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will." Romans 12:1-2 In the mid-1700s, a shipload of migrants landed on the northwest coast of America. Their first year, they established a site on which they'd build their town. The second year, they elected a town government. The third year, the town government made the decision to build a road stretching five miles westward into the wilderness. In the fourth year, the townspeople tried to overthrow their own government because they believed building a road five miles into the wilderness was a waste of money. The very same people who saw thousands of miles across an ocean and overcame hardships to get there couldn't see five miles down the road! |
