    North, South, East and West (1 Thessalonians 5:23-28) Like an X and Y axis in Algebra, so spiritual growth comes from both vertical and horizontal directions. 1. God has a lot of work to do in our lives; for some of us, God has cleared away the biggest hurdles, but there are plenty of lesser ...read more

    Too often, we have a tendency to stare up into the clouds waiting for Jesus to doing something amazing when the whole time He wants to be doing amazing things through us.
