Milk or Meat

The other night I missed a very important step in preparing our meal, and I didn't realize it until we sat down to eat.  After placing the assorted vegetables on the table, I went back into the kitchen to retrieve the baked chicken out of the oven,  and  imagine my horror when I opened the oven door to find cold chicken!  I  had forgotten to turn on the oven!

So, my family had a nice laugh, and we sat down to enjoy the vegetarian meal, and waited for the chicken to properly bake.

I couldn't help but think about Hebrews 5:12-14.  

"For when for the time ye ought to be teachers, ye have need that one teach you again which be the first oracles of God; and are become such as have need milk, and not of strong meat.

For every one that useth milk is unskilful in the word of righteousness: for he is a babe.

But strong meat belongeth to them that are full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil."

A veggie meal is fine physically, but when it comes to our Spiritual needs, we need meat!

Let's put aside our spoons and pick up our knives and forks!  

But that's just me!

But grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. 

2 Peter 3:18a
