NOV/DEC2011 It’s winter here in the UK – a time when not an awful lot grows (except perhaps belly button fluff from wearing thick woolly jumpers!). But, even without physical warmth, it’s good to know there can be growth in our lives because God is working in us. The impact of His Spirit means things can happen all year round! As we come to the end of another year, it’s good to look back and ask ourselves if we’ve grown over the last twelve months, not just according to Auntie Mary and the notches on the kitchen wall, but in our faith and maturity in God. All the sections in this splendiferous YP’s will help you to keep on growing in God (or indeed to start, if you haven’t already!). You can always ask God to help the fruit of the Spirit grow in your life (see Gal. 5:22), and I hope the first section will really encourage you in that. Then we dip into the book of Romans and, boy, will it help your faith and understanding grow! And finally, maybe the section on angels will help you to grow wings!! (Only kidding – no letters please ) So, I pray God will show you some great new things about growing as you read this issue. Oh, and have a fab Christmas. See you in 2012 … Oh and YP’s will be £2.85 from the next issue. Still a bargain you must agree!
