What makes a flower Grow? My wife sent me this picture today. An author is putting into a book he is writing. I received this for myself but also made me think a bit. What does make a flower grow? Minimum Water Nutrients in the soil (Good soil) Correct temperature and Light You can add fertilizer or other nutrients to assist in growing. Yelling def does but patience is needed to wait for it grow as long as you did your part and continue do what’s necessarily. What makes one grow as a leader in sports ministry? Yelling def doesn’t just do it. Patience is needed as long as one does their part and we as leaders are pouring into them Watering them - pouring into them with knowledge and discipling them Good Soil - leading them in the right way that glorifies God Correct Temp and Sunlight - not all flowers grow in the same temp and need the same light. Some need warmer temp and some need cooler temp. Some need more light and some need less light. The same goes for our leaders and volunteers . To get the Most of someone you for one need to put them in the best spot to succeed using their strengths. And 2 leading instructing teaching in the way that brings the most out of them. Fertilizer - devos, prayer time, opportunities to lead …. And patience - when a Flower blooms , one can see the beauty that it has. You almost forget the time and effort it took to get to this point as it was well worth it. Same goes for our leaders and volunteers - some grow quicker - some take longer to grow They are both worth it as long as we do our part , they do their part and we allow God to do the work he told us he do. Have a blessed day everyone
