GROWING PAINS

“Regard it all as joy, my brothers, when you face various kinds of temptations; for you know that the testing of your trust produces perseverance. But let perseverance do its complete work; so that you may be complete and whole, lacking in nothing.” 
 
- James 1:2-4 CJB

We recently had our granddaughter staying with us; it was a wonderful time.  While she was here, she complained on and off about pain in her legs.  We knew it was growing pains, and we literally watched her grow before our very eyes.  Growing pains can cause a lot of discomfort.  We don’t like them, but it’s what we have to endure as our bodies grow.  

As believers in Yeshua, we too have growing pains.  I’m sure many can attest that the minute you gave your life to the Lord, the enemy started working to keep you where he had you.  God begins to use us and with that, the testing begins.  The testing is the growing pains.  They are what we endure on our way to spiritual growth.  We may not be equipped to handle them at first, but the more we learn, the better equipped we become.  We persevere through it all and we are no longer afraid.  We can step out in faith knowing Yeshua is with us at every turn.  

The old fades away as newness grows.  As you go through the changes in yourself know that God’s growing you into new being.  

Be a Blessing and Be Blessed!
