Growth

"Growth for the sake of growth is the ideology of the cancer cell. Cancer has no purpose but growth; but it does have another result – the death of the host.” Edward Abby
This is a quote I read today that I believe we must continually be mindful of in the church. Growth for the sake of growth will do nothing but suck the life out of us. We must seek God and seek relationship with Him. If growth is a result of this, awesome! If not, maybe God has another plan.
