Our Churches are full of Baby Christians, (some of them have been Saved for years). They have to coddled, fed, burped and their face washed. If they don't get the attention that they want they start crying louder and louder. Then they grow into teenage Christians and rebel against all authority, pastors, teachers, elders, and yes even God. But eventually some grow up and become the people God always knew they could be. So as grown up Christians we need to have Faith that God's plan for them will come quickly. Place our Hope in God until that happens. But most of all Love them through the entire process, That is what God did for us until we grew up!!!
11 When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, and I made plans like a child. When I became a man, I stopped those childish ways.
12 It is the same with us. Now we see God as if we are looking at a reflection in a mirror. But then, in the future, we will see him right before our eyes. Now I know only a part, but at that time I will know fully, as God has known me.
13 So these three things continue: faith, hope, and love. And the greatest of these is love.
