I find few things more delectable than three or four of my wife's freshly baked chocolate-chip cookies, hot from the oven but cool enough to pick up and introduce to my longing taste buds. What really makes this treat complete is a large glass of ice-cold milk. That milk and those cookies are made for each other. Now, I'm not considered a baby because I still drink milk. Transfer this scenario to our Christian lives, as the writer did in today's Scripture.
Milk is always good and nourishing.
We must never lose our appreciation for God's forgiveness and our new life in Christ. God wants us to learn the Word through study, prayer, meditation, obedience, and testing. We must know spiritual principles so that we can apply them, speak with confidence about our faith, and stand up under adversity. The milk of the Word will always taste good, but the Bible's solid food makes us strong. The Bible is a pantry Where I can always find The food I need from day to day For heart and soul and mind.
