grow to full maturity

"...let our lives lovingly express truth [in all things, speaking truly, dealing truly, living truly]. Enfolded in love, let us grow up in every way and in all things into Him Who is the Head, [even] Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed One).

For because of Him the whole body (the church, in all its various parts), closely joined and firmly knit together by the joints and ligaments with which it is supplied, when each part [with power adapted to its need] is working properly [in all its functions], grows to full maturity, building itself up in love." (Ephesians 4:15-16, Amplified Bible)

National Day of Prayer

On this National Day of Prayer, I lift up all of America and I pray that all of America will return to our Christian heritage and call upon His wisdom to guide us. I repent for those times we turn our backs and try to go it on our own. I pray our leaders will be convicted in a new great way that God, our Father, is our true Leader. He will provide and protect, if only we will surrender to Him. God bless America!
