This morning my devotional reading included Psalm 119:11 which says “I have hidden your word in my heart that I might not sin against you.” Likewise, Psalm 1 explains that the one who lives a “blessed” life delights in God’s law and meditates upon it day and night. This catalyst for spiritual growth is woven throughout the fabric of Scripture.
As I considered similar passages, I started asking myself what other disciplines, practices and lifestyles might enable us to grow ever stronger as God followers.
Five Fundamental Lifestyles:
1. Contemplation & Adoration of the Creator
2. Consideration & Emulation of Jesus Christ
3. Service & Sharing with those in Need
4. Proclamation & Propagation of Christian Thought & Spirituality
5. Responsibility & Accountability within a Christian Community

6. Dying to & Denying Oneself (via Jacob Walsh, www.eology.wordpress.com)
What do you think? What would you add to the list?
