Every stage of a person life is vital to the growth of a person. A Pastor once told us what is true in the natural is true in the spiritual.

At the beginning of Christian Walk,  our personal desire and our old self are still above God. Although we yearn to be the top of everything and want to learn everything and grow to be bigger and stronger and in the spiritual thing best is lesser time than the others because all these seem so fresh to us and our zeal for the LORD is Super High cause Everything is God God, Daddy God, and still only God. It is good to yearn for all these and everything that come with it but it is another to digest everything and experience it eventutally.

As we can’t force a 1-year-old  to grow to 21-year-old.. we should learn not to force spiritual growth. We can be a 10 years christian but yet in God eyes, we are only babes till we experience the knowledge we have and allow God to put to test of it, we will by no means know if we pass or fail the test. Ultimately, the marker is GOD and HE is the one who elevate or put a person down.

If there is anything different between the old us and the New us,
We can only say LET JESUS INCREASE and “i” decrease no matter what stage we are in and the interesting thing about this Kingdom is that the older you get, the more the “i” factors should die and the more God factor should be manifested meaning the more we need lean on our Lord as we get older and no one is perfect to judge till HE COME BACK.
