The Lord Is Good

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

Once we start to follow Jesus as our Savior, we hopefully don't stop there.

Instead, we crave spiritual food and God's Word.

Like a newborn baby, we are only ready for spiritual milk.

When we get a small taste of His goodness, we want more.

We start to crave it.

We want to grow closer to Him so that He can help us grow.

And even though we're still sinners and we fall away, God helps us grow up in our salvation.

Yesterday we had a memorial service for my friend Sheri's mom.

She was an elder in our church and others, and she worked to help people grow in their knowledge of God.

Our hearts go out to Sheri and her family in the unexpected loss of her mom, Elizabeth.
