Illus: And speaking of that, I found a dog a couple of months ago on the freeway, and I’ll do a whole message about him, but check this out.  The other day I had my Bible in my office and this dog literally ate the word.  And I think he got saved, too.

So feed on the Word.  It is the milk.  Again, go back to a baby.  A baby is born and they see light for the first time, they feel the warmth of their parent’s arms for the first time, they breathe in air for the first time, and they taste milk for the first time.

Someone is born again, they see the light of Jesus for the first time, they feel the warmth of his companionship for the first time, they taste the milk of God’s Word for the first time, and they breathe in the power of the Holy Spirit for the first time.

It is time to go onto maturity, because it’s our desire as parents to see our kids grow and develop.  It is God’s desire to see us grow and develop and go onto maturity.  So it is about feeding.

It is also about walking, right?  That is fellowship.  And the Bible talks so much about the walk, our walk.  And walking is progression.  And it is interesting how the Bible uses that to talk about our Christian life.

Illus: Now our daughter, who is our oldest who is 22 now, is pretty much a medical miracle, because when she was 9 months old, the girl could not even crawl or turn over. But one day, I will never forget it, she was looking around the house and she just jumped up and started walking.  Doctors are still writing about it.  Our pediatrician still can’t believe it.  She just got up and just took off.
