Spiritual Growth is a discipline

Well, its been a while since my last post. I believe that transparency among Christian leaders is such a key principle to personal growth as well as the growth of fellow believers, and so on that note I must say that instead of over-spiritualising my absence, it simply has been due to laziness and a battle against discipline. We never want to call ourselves lazy, do we! But the truth is the truth :) and the reality is that if we want to grow spiritually, we must give ourselves to discipline. That is while the followers of Jesus are known as two particular names: Disciples, which means that they came under the discipline of being with, learning from, and becoming like Christ; and Apostles, which are sent out to operate in the disciplines they have come to live by. I would say then that without discipline we cannot be disciples, and without first becoming a disciple we cannot become an apostle, for what will we have to take with us as we go?

This morning I have been watching some Bill Johnson messages on Youtube... Life-changing stuff...
