What are the signs of a mature person? Making wise decisions is surely one sign. A mature person takes responsibility for his or her actions. This person has gathered knowledge through experience to live wisely. A certain amount of selflessness and caring for others also characterize the mature person. I am sure that you can add more characteristics of maturity than my short list.
Basically maturity comes from practice of the characteristics of human growth andbetterment. Becoming a mature person of faith comes the same way. To mature in the faith, we must constantly practice walking by faith in Jesus Christ. We align ourselves with His will and make decisions in line with righteousness. We do all this, not in our own strength, but by depending on the Holy Spirit to work in and through us.
Hebrews 5:14 says, “But solid food is for the mature, for those who have their powers of discernment trained by constant practice to distinguish good from evil.” Constant practice of walking in righteousness by the power of the Holy Spirit will help us grow in discernment and faith.
