Don't stop growing

2 Peter 3:18 NIV

18 But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and forever! Amen.



The past two weeks have been very trying and very rewarding.  Bev has been gone 5 days from up at The Master's Hands over that period.  So I have had to step up and take care of things.  I thank God that he gave me the ability to do this, but most of all for giving me such wonderful help up there.  It is truly a team effort up there and I love all of the great volunteers that come in. Then we Steven acting up over that time period as well.  He has been not wanting to get on the van and go to school.  The good thing, once he is one and they take off he is fine.  He thinks he should get to go on vacation again. Oh the joys of trying to explain it to him. It is doesn't help, but maybe someday it will.  He continues to grow day by day.  He amazes me at how far he has come and I know he only has more greatness ahead.  

One of the reasons Bev was gone was to go to a seminar to learn more about how to make the most of serving God and helping others.  She has been fired up and fired all of us up!  She has grown in her walk with God.  I know that she will help us all grow as well.  I know that with the responsibilities I had to step into has helped me grow in my walk with the Lord.  I have seen others grow the past two weeks as well.  

For all of you out there who only go to fellowship with other Christians on Sunday morning are missing out.  The more you gather together in the name of the Lord the more you grow.  I have seen God give people the strength to say no to temptation just from being up at The Master's Hands on a daily basis.  They have come in to volunteer and have been fed.  They have learned to turn from temptation.

God has given us a dance floor, a stage, a table and other ways to serve him and grow with others.  Don't ever stop growing!

Take care and God bless,
