Baby Step in Grace

I've heard discussion before of the idea that writing can be a spiritual discipline. It is definitely a discipline and is not wholly outside the realm of the spirit. I hope it can be practice of spiritual growth for me. Our pastor began a short(?) series on How to Grow Spiritually this morning. The focus of the first sermon was on being rooted in God's grace. All true spiritual growth begins in the Father's grace but it only continues as we work out the grace that He works into us. This is one of my baby steps into new, I hope, growth.
