Scripture

Remember those who led you, who spoke the Word of God to you, and considering the result of their conduct, imitate their faith. Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever. Hebrews 13:7-8

Observation

As Christians, we should consider those who have contributed to the spiritual growth in our lives. For most, there have been men and women who have invested themselves in our lives that has helped us develop into what God is calling us to be. It is important that we not only acknowledge these people, but that we let them know that through their example, we have gained life principles that leads to purpose and contentment in our lives. It is also important to know that our life given over to Jesus’ Lordship is stable and secure and will never be changed or taken from us.

Application

Today, take time to communicate to those that have contributed to your spiritual growth your thankfulness in what they have done. Remember to let them know how without their “care and feeding” of the principles of God in your life, you would not have the confidence to do what God has called you to be.

Prayer

Lord Jesus, thank you for those You have brought into my life that have given of themselves to help me grow in Your principles for life. I pray that you would bless them and return in abundance the love You have shown me. Amen
