God says that his people will die from lack of understanding.
God also tells us that his people will die from our lack of knowledge.
Are you aware of the knowledge of your own life?
Are you aware of the outcomes you have had that lead to a good outcome, bad out come or both?
Are you growing in your own understanding of the knowledge of your life, how it's impacting you and using it as leverage for wisdom and God producing a good outcome of your life?
God can only produce good.
Humans however are not all knowing and that lack of knowledge also contributes to the evil we experience.
Today I discuss all this for the sake of us growing in the direction that will heal us and help us to bear fruit that will bless the people God puts in our life.
Maturity!
This is a topic that has been on my mind for a long time because for so many years I had thought I was mature but was still operating in a parent/child dynamic with other adults in my church. I thought I was mature because I was living by their values and expectations and because I was chosing to do it I was an adult. I didn't realize how much I was living in compulsion and fear of them wrongly judging me and condemning me for not complying with them. To top it off, I was a brand new Christian when I came into their fellowship so I was all ears and more than willing to do what was expected because I wanted to grow in my relationship with God and that was my priority.
Over the years I realized how that way of living was hindering my growth and development as a person. I realized I had perspectives and experiences that were relevant and shouldn't be hidden to keep the peace. God didn't hide his desire to have a relationship with me by exposing the issues hindering it, I shouldn't be ashamed of the things he came to die for and the grace he supplied in my life through giving me a life giving perspective that has altered the trajectory of my life.
I share these different perspectives through my own life experiences with this topic as well as what I'm currently learning for that week.
I hope this inspires and encourages you to grow into the person God created you to be with no apologies.
