God wants you to grow up - some grow older but never grow up (Ephesians 4:14-15)
Nothing shapes your life than the commitments you make
Many are afraid to commit to anything and drift through life
God's part and your part
Our part is to: Continue to work out our salvation with fear and trembling - Philippians 2:12-13
Our role = "work out" salvation (grow - in a body workout we have our body but we make it better)
God's role = "work in" us
Changing your autopilot
Becareful what you think; your life is shaped by your thoughts - Proverbs 4:23
Changing what you think, changes you
Going on a diet, exercising does not work if you do not change your thinking - "I am going on a diet"
The way you think determines the way you feel - which influences how you act - Ephesians 4:23
Babies by nature are completely selfish
Many never grow beyond that kind of thinking
It is not the amount of biblical information and doctrine you know
Deeds must be constant with our creeds / Beliefs backed up with Christlike behavior
