CONTINUED GROWTH
By: Haley Gullette
Be like newborn babies, always thirsty for the pure spiritual milk, so that by drinking it you may grow up and be saved.
1Peter 2:2 GNB
I recently became a mother. Having a new baby, it seems like right now he grows almost every day. Sometimes he looks different after just taking a nap! As he gets older and older, it will be weeks maybe even months before I’ve noticed any growth or change.
When we first get saved, so much change happens in our lives. As we mature as Christians, those changes become less noticeable and farther apart. We start out so on fire for God, and it can quickly feel as if the fire begins to fade. Although it may feel this way, the fire is still burning inside of us.
1 Peter 2:2 reminds us that as long as we continue to stay thirsty, we will continue to grow. This is a reminder to constantly feed our spiritual bodies each and every day.
