Spiritual Discipline
When I first heard the term “spiritual discipline,” I bristled at the thought of spiritual growth requiring discipline: self-discipline and, of course, God-directed discipline.
So why is it called discipline?
• It is requires commitment, time, and lots of practice.
• Planning and dedication are key.
• You have to be intentional.
• It sometimes comes with pain.
An athlete understands these dynamics and what it takes to discipline our bodies. She exercises and eats right in order to have optimal performance.
I am no star athlete, but I do long to grow in spiritual discipline so that I might
• Draw closer to God.
• Follow Jesus’ example.
• Live by the Spirit.
This week, we’ll be exploring various aspects of spiritual discipline as they relate to our overall spiritual health.
The perfect remedy for what ails you
Fearful? Perfect love drives out fear (1 John 4:18).
Isolated? Over 50 “one-another” passages in the New Testament.
Discontent? Give thanks in all circumstances (1 Thes. 5:18).
Weak? I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me (Phil. 4:13).
Distracted? Take captive every thought... (2 Cor. 10:5).
