“Rather, you must grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.” 3:18
It’s reassuring to me to read that grace is something we can grow in. Everyone has Christ-like qualities that come naturally to them, and everyone has attributes that are learned and strengthened.
What things come easily to you? I find it easy to be encouraging and positive. I like rooting people on, bringing up the morale and pointing out the bright side of scenarios.
What quality of God do you need to grow in? I struggle to forgive easily and extend grace.
How do we find growth? Reading our Bible, asking God for more measures of his grace in our life and surrounding ourself with people who have what we don’t. Bethany is constantly modeling forgiveness and mercy for me. I need her example in my life!
Take a minute and reflect on these questions with a friend.
Tomorrow we start the book of Jeremiah!
