Fully Developed

Even though we live in a digital age, most of us has seen a Polaroid picture. It pops out of the camera and is pretty much blank, but given enough time and the correct conditions, you begin to make out the image in the picture. Eventually, it’s crystal clear because it’s fully developed.

In Galatians 4:19, Paul expresses his hope that the Galatian believers would continue to grow until Christ is fully developed in them. This process is not as fast as a Polaroid, but it’s important that we give it the time and effort it deserves because there is nothing worse than a fuzzy picture when it comes to issues of eternity. This week, we’re going to look at three concepts that can help us — and our children — become fully developed in Christ.
