Then and now

Dating to today. Almost 14 years apart.


It’s fun to look back sometimes at how we’ve changed, and I hope the biggest changes have nothing to do with our appearance. 


In John 17:17 Jesus says, “Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth.”


Sanctification is the process of a Christian becoming more like Christ Jesus. 


God will help us grow, and the process goes a lot better and faster if we work with Him on it, not against Him. 


So what’s changed in your life lately? 


How are you allowing God to grow you?


What parts of your life are changing and becoming more like Jesus?


This growth process is meant to continue until we get to heaven. Each day we should grow a little more like Jesus. 


It’s fun to look back to where we were years ago and see how we’ve changed. And it’s even better to look back and see how God has changed us.
