As a kid, I took swimming lessons at the YMCA… lack of trust in the instructors held me back and I still couldn’t learn to swim. I got thrown into the pool… still couldn’t swim and someone had to come in and save me. Tried every method and still till this day, I can’t swim and gave up trying to learn. I love the water, but will hang on to the rim of the pool or get nervous when my feet can’t touch the bottom.
Is that why certain people can’t grow in Christ? Because they are still holding onto the rim (what they know)? Increase your faith in Christ and He will take you higher. Is it your lack of trust in Him? Is it your fear of the unknown or what you could be capable of if you put all of your faith in God? If every other method has failed you in life, why not try God? Don’t give up on God, because He won’t give up on you. We may love God, but still hold on to certain things that we should let go. If you let go, you’ll learn that those certain things were holding you back from what all life has to offer. Trust Him…. He is the TRUE Life Saver!

Hebrews 6:1 “Therefore let us move beyond the elementary teachings about Christ and be taken forward to maturity, not laying again the foundation of repentance from acts that lead to death, and of faith in God”
