1 GROWING IN GOD S WORD The growing season will soon be upon us and I am sure many are anticipating it. It is a time of tilling and preparing the soil; a time of planting the seeds and tender plants. We will hoe our gardens, add fertilizer and water the plants. For those of us who plant gardens, we take special care to ensure the health of all the plants, so at the end of the season, there will be a harvest. This summer don t forget to tend to the growth of your spiritual life. Make sure that you continue to read God s word so that you are growing in the Word and growing spiritually. This discipline folder is all New Testament scripture taken from the Revised Common Lectionary, Year B. Make sure you are tending to your gardens, and also to your spiritual growth.
