There are no shortcuts.
to spiritual maturity . . .
there are no easy ways
to learning humility.
It takes a lifetime,
for our faith to grow
it takes years and years
for our fruit to show.
There are no quick steps,
to finding God’s peace
there are no round abouts
to make our trust increase.
It takes a lot of time,
for God to finish . . .
what He has began
for our doubts to diminish.
There are no shortcuts,
no real time savers
for us to be made into . . .
the image of our Savior!
~~~~~~~
Being confident
of this very thing,
that he which hath begun
a good work in you
will perform it until
the day of Jesus Christ:
