Four-Dimensional Jesus

" Jesus grew in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and men." ~ Luke 2:52

"Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength." ~ Mark 12:30; Luke 10:27

That's right. He grew four ways: in wisdom (mentally, intellectually; in mind), in stature (or strength; physically; in the ability to do things to His glory), in favor with God (spiritually; in His soul), and in favor with men (socially; in His heart for others). So, as a community of believers, we have an opportunity to grow and fill out each other's deficits and have our deficits enriched by their gifts. Surely God wants us to grow in all four dimensions - including our worship - just as Jesus did.
