GAIN

Baby bear went for his 2-week check up yesterday.  Many babies will lose some weight and then get back to their birth weight, but not our little bundle.  He had gained almost a pound and grew ¾ of an inch in length.  He is a growing little boy.  I can’t wait for him to have little rolls on his legs.  It is a blessing that he is gaining and growing strong.

We probably don’t want anyone to be glad if we gain weight, but it would be great to gain in spirit and increase our faith.  Just like babies have formula or breast milk for growing; we have a formula to increase our faith.  We must feed our faith.

How do we feed our faith?  We feed our faith with the word.  We gain faith by listening to God, studying the word, and then applying it.  Immersing ourselves with scripture we learn about Gods love, mercy and grace.  Our relationship with Him will grow, much like that of a growing baby. 

By living in Gods’ promises our faith will grow exceedingly.  Romans 10:17 tells us faith comes from hearing through the word of God.  Feed yourself with His word and you will gain so much faith you will be off the charts.
