Seek
If you want to grow in your relationship with Jesus and live life to the full, you must learn to seek God on your own. You must learn to feed yourself. We need other people, the church and our Life Group. But the person who relies entirely upon others for his or her spiritual growth will stay an immature Christian. A baby needs mom or dad to feed it. An adult can feed himself. If you are totally dependent on others to feed you spiritually and can't feed yourself, you will stay a spiritual baby.
Develop the habit of daily time with God-we call it PBJ time. Prayer, Bible reading, and journaling. Ask God for one thing, write that one thing in your journal, pray it back to Him, and try to apply it that day.
If you're looking for a place to start, download one of the reading plans below. The 15 minute plan covers the old testament once, and the new testament twice in a year's time. The 5 minute plan follows the 15 minute plan with a third of the day's reading.
