I still remember the first time we gave solids to our eldest son. He would have been around six months old and up until that point the only food he’d known was his mother's milk.
We caught the moment on video as he adjusted to new flavours and textures. We started with baby food, not hot wings and fries! He wouldn't have been ready for it. I, on the other hand, am always ready for hot wings and fries!
There’s a certain type of food appropriate for a child and others for adults. In fact, it’d be weird for a grown adult to eat baby food!
The writer of the Hebrews, acting as a loving pastor, warns his readers that their spiritual growth is stunted. While they ought to be at the maturity of ‘solid food’ and able to teach others, they still need to be fed themselves. This is likely the case because they’ve become dull of hearing (5:11).
Spiritual growth or maturity is the goal of all who follow Jesus (Colossians 1:28). We mature as we train or practice (5:14), or as we form spiritual habits.
In the instant age we live in, we want to fast-track everything. There is no fast-track or accelerated program to spiritual maturity. We grow as we practice the daily habits of prayer, worship, reading the Word, fellowship, silence, stillness, thankfulness, and more.
This is much more than simply box ticking a Bible reading plan. It’s meditating on the Word and experiencing God’s presence in prayer.
Are you hungry for more of God? Because He wants to satisfy your longing with good things (Psalm 107:9), and make you more like Jesus!
