Grow up

by Bruce Wadd

The kids burst out of the car fighting. At the supermarket it didn’t look like things were going to change and mum’s face showed tired frustration.

Then came those tell tale words. She just couldn’t be silent any longer!

“When are you kids going to grow up?” came the frustrated exclamation.

Does God ever think that about you? I know He does with me. He, sometimes gently, and at other times rather pointedly, reminds me that I need to mature.

Let me challenge you with what I believe is real maturity – to praise Him all the time, through every circumstance in life. That’s the real test!

“On your feet now – applaud God!

Bring a gift of laughter,

sing yourselves into His presence.”

Psalms 100:1

TODAY, thank Him for everything… and grow up as you do!
