Growing Up too FastHebrews 5:11-14 Having much to say, but hard to make clear, Since you are a little dense, slow to hear; As it would be right for you to be teachers, For the oracles of God being the preachers; You have become as babies need to be fed, Not on a solid food, rather on milk instead; Anyone who tastes milk has no experience, The righteous Word of spiritual obedience; Still as a child, an infant that is still lost, Lacking the wisdom in your mind embossed; Solid food is for those who have matured, And that temptations you can not be lured. Our kids tend to be growing way too fast, It does not seem like their childhoods last; But maybe they are weaned just too quick, As the earthly temptations make them sick; For the solid food eaten can become a sin, If not properly cooked thoroughly within; So that is why solid food is for the mature, Differences of good and evil known for sure.
