Growing In The Lord

Monte and I moved into Sengkang in August 2001.  We love living in this beautiful estate.

I vividly recall the young plants that grew along the road. The strong wind and thunderstorm oftentimes make it difficult to keep the young saplings in place. The authorities would use reinforcements. 

Without the reinforcements, the saplings will never grow into trees. Today, all the saplings have grown into young trees. Wow!

Just like the young saplings that have grown into trees, God grows us. God nurtures, builds and nourishes us. The storms and challenges do not destroy us. They make us stronger in the Lord.  Our courage will not melt away. The sustaining power of God is at work in our broken lives.

By the power of God's Spirit we thrive. We triumph. We overcome. God is the one who grants us hope and courage to persevere. He brings us growth. He brings out the best in us.  

As we journey with the Lord, He empowers us to move in His anointing. We will not settle for less. We reach our fullest potential in the power of God’s Spirit.  

From faith to faith. From glory to glory. We lean completely on the Lord. We know no other way except the path that He lays before us.

We walk by faith and not by sight. God empowers us with His presence. He empowers us with His love.  He empowers us with His anointing.
