GOD'S MESSAGE FOR ME TODAY
Like new born babies, long for the pure milk of the word, so that by it you may grow in respect to salvation. —1 Peter 2:2

HOW DOES THIS APPLY TO MY LIFE?
We are to long for the word...Sometimes, I don't want to read scripture. Like a newborn, I become or can be fussy. But the more I read, and as I am consistant in it, the more I want it, and the more I live it.
