Growing Strong in Christian Life
It is God's purpose concerning his children that they be strong men and women. It is his plan that they shall attain to strength by little and little, and that the rapidity with which the littles are added shall be measured by the use of what has been already attained. The child does not leap at once from the estate of childhood to that of manhood. So the Christian does not go at once from a babe in Christ to a strong man. The child develops a symmetrical manhood by careful discipline of all his powers. So the Christian grows strong by performing faithfully the duties of life as they come to him. "Grow in grace and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ," is the unchangeable law.—Sabbath Recorder.
