We have just come thru the growing season where we plant seeds and watch them sprout and grow into mature plants. As they grow, they produce buds which turns into fruit. If a plant does not receive the correct sun light, it will not grow properly. If a plant does not receive the correct amount of water, it will not grow properly. If a plant does not receive the correct amount of food, it will not grow properly and will not produce the fruit that is expected

This morning we are going to look at Paul letter again to the Thessalonians regards their growth. But I would like to look at this growth spiritually speaking from 2 different sides. From the mature believer who wants a new believer to grow, and from the new believer who needs to word of God or bread of life to mature and grow to produce fruit.
