You become what you behold. What we choose to focus on drives our decisions & actions. As we mature Jesus needs to be our example. His teaching bring life but they are not always easy to follow. If we are to grow up in all things what we focus on will be what helps us to continue to grow or hold us back & keep us stuck.
