Grace for your spirit February 18, 2010

Grace for your spirit
But solid food is for the mature, who because of practice have their senses trained to discern good and evil. Hebrews 5:14
I went into our new hospital's cafeteria the other day, greeted by this sign. "Unattended children will receive an espresso, and a free puppy" To a kid, extra caffeine and a puppy to play with sounds very exciting. To a parent, a kid bouncing off the wall, and a puppy may be a real problem.
Message received. Watch the children. Scripture encourages us not to be like children in our thinking, but to be mature. Learning by having our senses trained to know the difference between good and evil. To the immature, many things seem to be fun that are dangerous. As we mature, we see that danger. This is the reason we to spend time to get into the meat of God's Word, and grow in spiritual maturity. I life lived without discernment, is doomed to failure.

The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit
Philippians 4:23
