"As newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the
word, that you may grow thereby." (1 Peter 2:2)

grow most in grace, who are most devoted to a
spiritual perusal of the Scriptures.
"As newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the word, that you may grow thereby." (1 Peter 2:2)
that you may grow thereby:
I love the rest of the sentence.
3If so be ye have tasted that the Lord is gracious.
Oh yes indeed!
Only the **heart** knows that taste, and continually desires more and more.

Thank you for posting this. The sheer simplicity of the thought, yet it's so profound...
Ps 131:2 Surely I have behaved and quieted myself, as a child that is weaned of his mother: my soul is even as a weaned child.
Jesus said: Mt 18:3 And said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven.
