GROWING UP IN CHRIST-PART 2

Romans 5: 1-3
Therefore, being justified by faith, we have peace with GOD through our LORD JESUS CHRIST, by whom also we have access by faith into this grace in which we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of GOD. And not only so, but we glory in tribulations also, knowing that tribulation worketh patience...

As we grow in Christ, we will have tribulations, they are part of forming us into the image of Christ. Formation is essential in the growing process, just like school is essential in the formation of children. There are parts of us that need to be cut away, in order for us to bear fruit that is rich and succulent, attractive to those who are lost and crying out for help.

We are the witnesses of the grace of GOD; well formed life-lines so that many lives will be brought to JESUS. This is our task, this is our duty and this is why we are being formed in the school of the Holy Spirit. Be patient, GOD is not finished with us yet.

FORMED INTO THE IMAGE OF JESUS, BY THE GRACE OF GOD.
