  All Relationships Must Grow    It is not only important to start a relationship with Jesus, but like any other relationship on earth, that relationship must continually grow in order to remain healthy and flourishing.   The relationship that we have with our parents naturally changes and grows over time.   The friendships that we have with a few close people in our life can become extremely helpful as they grow over time.   The relationship that we may establish with the opposite sex will either grow in one direction or the other.   It may develop as friends or, over a period, it may develop toward a marriage.   Even married couples need to develop and grow as a couple as time passes.   Our relationship at work with our supervisor, employees, or co-workers also grows over time.   Just about every relationship we have grows over time.   If for some reason, a relationship becomes stagnant and does not grow, then it will more tha...
