Growth: Climbing To The Apex

Growth: Climbing To The Apex.

Beloved brethren, today, I want us to reflect on the words of an old sage concerning growth. The wise man said:

"Growth is not always like climbing up a ladder, it's normally like climbing a mountain: sometimes you go upwards, other times sideways, and other times downwards, in order to reach the apex." 

This reminds us that the journey of growth is not a straight and smooth path. 

It is a challenging ascent, that requires patience and perseverance.

Growth is a process, and not an instantaneous event. 

In James 1:2-4 KJV, we read,

"My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations; Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience. But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing."

As we climb the mountain of growth, we must be prepared for the various terrain we will encounter. 

• Sometimes, we may feel like we are making steady progress, ascending ever higher towards our goal. 

• Other times, we may find ourselves moving sideways, navigating through challenges that seem to hinder our forward momentum. 

• And still, there may be occasions when we feel like we are moving backwards, facing setbacks and obstacles that test our faith.

Let us not be discouraged. These unexpected turns and detours are all a part of the journey. 

Patience and perseverance is required. 

We cannot rush the process.

Growth is not a linear path. It’s a journey of ups and downs, twists and turns.

Each step, whether upward, sideways, or downward, is necessary for us to reach the apex of our personal development.

It is in the midst of our struggles that we truly find the way and the strength to soar to the apex God has ordained for us.

See You At The Top.
