Fixed ideas & traditions alone will not help you grow in God. Spiritual growth is a dynamic, living experience. We not only pray at all times. because it’s scriptural; But because spiritual communion and intimacy is the only way to grow Spiritually. Blessings of knowledge about God are only learned from God! We must go deeper in the Spirit, to see the evidence of growth in our life!
The world is in a constant state of sensory overload. God wants to speak to us in a deeper way than just the 5 senses. He wants us not to only be influenced by the loudness of the world around us but more so, by the Deep voice of God inside us.
Life in Christ moves in us like a seed moves in the Earth. It starts small & grows ever larger in the ground of our life. It grows first and foremost down deeper and stronger in the soil of our minds and hearts. Then, it grows up from a strong root to be alive in the world around us and touch those nearby, with it’s life.
We must grow deep in the ground of the Spirit, to have true life to share with others. We must allow the life of the Spirit to grow deep in us, to have true Spiritual life coming forth from us!

Most beautiful moment of scenery of 2017. Seemed a special spiritual marking of God, to highlight my losing 75 lbs.
