Today’s Reading:
Ephesians 4:11–16 (EFKS Tusi Faitau Aso)

“Instead, speaking the truth in love, we will grow to become in every respect the mature body of him.”
(Ephesians 4:15)

This week’s EFKS theme:
Seasons of Life — Maturity

A Thought for Today

Following Jesus means allowing ourselves to keep growing.

What This Means for Us Today

Spiritual maturity does not happen overnight.

Paul describes believers growing together, learning truth, practising love, and becoming more like Christ.

There will always be more for us to learn. Maturity begins when we remain willing to be shaped.

Carry This With You

Never become too comfortable to keep growing.

A Simple Prayer

Lord Jesus, continue Your work in me.
Help me grow in truth, love, and maturity.

Today’s Invitation

Ask God one simple question today:
“Where do I still need to grow?”
