All my life, I've always been short. In elementary school we were expected to line up in size order. I was always first in the line. Early in my years I learned that I would never be tall. Hence my nickname: "Shorty". I realized I would never grow. Although I would never grow in height, I've come to realize that I am now having a growth spurt. I am growing in love, grace and in spirit. I am at a point in my life, where I am trying to grow in God. I'm trying to grow spiritually. I am serious about my walk. I am getting older and I don't have time to play games with my faith. I'm spiritually maturing. Things of God matters to me. While growing up my sisters and I would play house and church. I'm done with playing as I am fully aware that God is serious and He wants His children to stop playing with Him. This doesn't mean that we should get so full of our selves or become "holier than thou", but to be real, and have a sense of awe and respect for Him. I have a long way to go! I have issues that I need God to change in and through me. But in the mean time, I'm in a spiritual development process. Waiting to see the woman of God I will grow into. So, don't hate because I'm moving to another level. Ask God to move you to a deeper level in Him, so you too can grow!
