This is my little sharing with u all:
Are We growing up or Growing Old?
This is my little sharing with u all:
Are We growing up or Growing Old?
The difference between growing old and growing up is that when we grow old in our physical age but our maturity and our inner self did not grow up so we are still young mentally. So we have to grow up in maturity with God's word that we are to be transform. the transformation of the word. we have to grow up. When we grow up means more responsibility and we are responsible for our own life.
Maturity Does Not Come With Age But it Comes Down To Acceptance Of RESPONSIBILITY.
What are the things we have control over?
We may influence people and want them to turn to christ but is not within our full control.
A teacher might use all ways and means to ask the child to study and hand his work but they do not have the full control over the student.
what you have FULL control is YOURSELF.
- Therefore what you have control over for is what you are responsible for.
WE ARE RESPONSIBLE TO PEOPLE BUT NOT FOR PPL. Ezk 23 ( principle of the watchman)
WE HAVE TO BE RESPONSIBLE TO OURSELF FIRST !
Cause we got FULL CONTROL OF OURSELF!
We have to lead ourself first.
Leading our emotions. we has full control over how we want to feel and how we want to react. That goes the same for our emotions.
Leadership of our own Will is a result of our decision.
Romans 14:12 - Personal account
- Personal responsibility
We too have to help others to catch on the vision that they may grow and lead their own life as the grow up
Next Point:
Take hold of your thoughts if not it will be a stronghold in your life.
analogy: that u picture many ppl walking in circle. Each person represent a thought in your mind and the are going in circles in your mind. a thought in yr mind say u are failure if you do not take out that thought u will always think that u are failure. Yes we all fail at time but we are not a failure. That is part of growing so if we do not take out all this thoughts it will be a stronghold in our life.
Emotion is our indicator
- We must not be rule by our emotions
JOY - IS A CHOICE!
HAPPINESS - IS WHAT HAPPENS TO YOU
Lead our own physical body.
FINAL POINT: Begin taking responsibility of YOUR LIFE to GROW UP.
So lets run this race with each Other. GOD BLESS YOU ALL
