1 Corinthians 3:2 I gave you milk, not solid food, for you were not yet ready for it. Indeed, you are still not ready.

As babies, we get a lot of milk and not a lot of things like steak! There is a reason for this; our bodies cannot physically cope with the digestion of meat in the beginning.

When we first learn about Christ we need to learn the basics first. If we get a mouthful of theological debate, we will probably balk at the words and go back to what we had before.

Similarly, when we tell others about Christ, we have to choose our words so they understand. Learn to start at the beginning and teach from the beginning!

1 Corinthians 13:11 When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put the ways of childhood behind me.

I can remember always wanting to be older as a child and now wanting to be younger as an adult! We all change. We grow up and we grow old.

What we take with us is what forms us and normally shows on the outside. If we take love with us, it will show on the outside and not just inside.

Each day, we should be taking in what we see and hear and learning from it; exposing yourself to more of Christ will help you in your spiritual journey and growth.

1 Samuel 3:8 A third time the Lord called, “Samuel!” And Samuel got up and went to Eli and said, “Here I am; you called me.” Then Eli realized that the Lord was calling the boy.

How many times do we ignore the call of God just because we don’t understand where it is coming from?

How many times do we get involved and tell other people how they should hear from God?

It is a personal interaction between you and God; nobody else can tell you what to do other than to be still and listen to God.

So, try it, be still and listen out for God calling you!
