September 17

“Like newborn babies, crave pure spiritual milk, so that by it you may grow up in your salvation, now that you have tasted that the Lord is good.”  1 Peter 2:2-3 (NIV)

The picture in these verses is that of a baby who is so enthusiastic about drinking its milk. It does not need to be forced to take its nourishment. Its body has found that this is just what it needs to grow. So it is with our Christian lives. We have found the source of true nourishment in the word of God. It is like pure spiritual milk and it does help us to grow spiritually – to become the people that God wants us to be. So, if we have tasted the goodness of God, we will want to know more about it. That will increase our faith and cause growth.
