Spiritual Growth Is a Relationship, Not a Performance
In the Father’s house, growth is not measured by how well we perform, how little we fail, how spiritual we appear, how consistent we are, or how disciplined we become.
Spiritual growth is measured by one thing: whether we are learning to trust and accept the Father’s love so that Christ can be formed in us.
Relationship leads to transformation. Performance causes exhaustion. Jesus didn’t say, “Try harder and obey My commands.” He said, “Remain in My love.” — John 15:5-10
Remaining isn’t about striving; it’s about resting in the love that transforms us.
