Hello Advent Family,

 

Have you ever had a serious craving? The kind where you are ready for bed but you throw on clothes and run to the store for something specific. Maybe it is a late night pizza or some ice cream or other sweets. Cravings are interesting in that they tend to take control of you and get you to do things you wouldn’t otherwise. What about a craving for God? Peter talks a little bit about that. Let’s look at his words together today. “Therefore, rid yourselves of all malice and all deceit, hypocrisy, envy, and slander of every kind. Like newborn babies, crave pure spiritual milk, so that by it you may grow up in your salvation, now that you have tasted that the Lord is good.”

 

‭‭1 Peter‬ ‭2‬:‭1‬-‭3. Peter is telling us that we should crave spiritual nourishment. We should long to be filled from the word of God. Sometimes we crave things even more after we have a little bit of them. Today indulge in your craving for God and fill yourself full with spiritual milk!

 

In His Grip,

Pastor Dave
