Pushing Toward the Pinnacle : A Quest for Spiritual Maturity,
When we look across the spectrum of Christians we see the power of God working in the lives of His children in vastly different measures and with markedly different influences upon the world. The reality is that we don't fully know how God may use an individual or under what circumstances each of us may serve God. However, if we want to have the servant relationship that Jesus speaks of when He says in Luke 9:23, "If anyone would come after me, he must deny himself and pick up his cross daily and follow me," we must understand what that looks like in our own lives.
