04/05 Ephesians 4:10-13
The same one who came down is the one who ascended higher than all the heavens, so that his rule might fill the entire universe. 11 He is the one who gave these gifts to the church: the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, and the pastors and teachers. 12 Their responsibility is to equip God’s people to do his work and build up the church, the body of Christ, 13 until we come to such unity in our faith and knowledge of God’s Son that we will be mature and full grown in the Lord, measuring up to the full stature of Christ.
GROW
Growth is a process and we need to grow. No matter how mature we think we are we still need to grow. Are you teachable? Sometimes failure helps us to understand the things we need to develop in our life. When someone criticizes you don’t be offended. Thank them for sharing their thoughts with you and then go to the Lord and see if there is something you need to learn or do. Grow-it is a lifetime responsibility.
