I came across this picture on IG one day & saved it in my phone. Everyone wants to progress at something in life. For athletes it might be getting better at a specific skill or overall as a team working towards a championship. Students want to progress in their school work. Parents should want to progress into better parents. We all love and desire personal relationships, do we not strive for progress in these relationships? Yes! I could go on and on, but the point I'm trying to make is that we all should be striving to progress in life. Growth in all areas of our lives should be important whether it's progressing in your career, physically into healthier lifestyles, financially in saving money, & so forth. The BIG question is, how many of us make it a priority to progress spiritually?? Is that not the #1 area we all should be striving to progress in? Slow progress in this area is better than no progress! I want to encourage you whoever took the time to read this long post to strive to progress in becoming closer to God. Invest in your personal relationship with him. I'm in the same boat as you are. I feel like I should farther along in my personal walk but I do know I'm much further along than I was before. Everyday I'm making an effort to continue this progression. It's not hard but it's something you have to DECIDE & WANT to do. Make time for him & progress will follow!
