Growth and maturity should be a normal and natural part of our physical and spiritual lives. Then, how do we grow as believers? We grow in the understanding of the call God has for our lives and obedience to his will.

The truest measure of Christian maturity is how long it takes one to obey God's lead.

"Spiritual maturity is not reached by the passing of years, by obedience to the will of God. Some people mature into an understanding of God's will more quickly than others because they obey more readily." -Oswald Chambers
