Reflection about Growth

Hallo,

Last Saturday topic was about “Growth”. We heard that how we suppose to growth our faith. I agree with the experiment brought by Christine about Coca Cola. Sometimes after we received Baptism in the Spirit, suddenly we are on fire. We really want to worship and glorify His name in everything we do. However, the problem that may arise is the continuation after that. Do we still thirst of His words after a while? For me, it happens often. After quite some time, I just come back to my normal life where I’m not on fire anymore. I act like before I receive Baptism in the Spirit.

Like what I’ve learned from the session, we can grow our spiritual life through prayer, community, scripture, service and sacraments. Those are really important to keep us on fire most all the time. For me, being able to join Emmaus is one of the ways. We can have fun together while we worship His name. Rather than pray alone, it’s just nice to do it together. So, I invite all of you to join us (a little advertisement here hehe). I like 3 sentences in the Commitment Prayer which are:

That I may find new meaning in your Scriptures
That I may find new meaning in the sacraments
That I may find delight and comfort in prayer

I expect through this YISS, I can learn these 3 things. Hope that we can grow in Him more and more as time goes by.

GBU,

Henry ^^
