SINCERE MILK OF
THE WORD
"As newborn babes, desire
the sincere milk of the word,
that ye may grow thereby"
- 1Peter 2: 2
The World Health Organization recommends
exclusive breastfeeding (breast milk, only
breast milk and nothing but breast milk) for
the first six months of a baby's life. This is
in recognition of the many benefits of human
breast milk. Breast milk provides optimum
nutrition for a young infant and also protects
against many infections. Breast-fed infants
have less chance of suffering from sudden
infant death. And they are known to have
higher intelligence and develop to be
emotionally balanced youngsters. Breast
feeding also fosters mother-child bonding. God
has provided spiritual milk for spiritual growth-
“ the Word of God. It has all the nutrients
and ingredients required for optimum growth.
It protects against spiritual infections and
diseases. Youths can keep their ways pure by
taking heed to the word of God. Wisdom and
counsel are offered by the Word. And regular
intake of the sincere milk of the word secures
a spiritual bonding with the heavenly Father.
Read the Bible, child of God!
Challenge: Regular intake of the word ensures

Prayer: Create in me a deep hunger for your
word, Lord.
Quote: Read the Bible, child of God!
