Help, I Need Somebody!

Have you ever tried to separate a young animal from its Mother? When we were separating the spring calves from their Mothers, they bawled all day and night for several days. It was like they were saying “Help, I need somebody.” You could put another Mother in with a calf and the calf would still nurse. Yes, it is amazing to see the Mothers able to identify their own young but the truth is a young calf needs to nurse, so any mother/cow with milk will do. The Bible teaches us we need to get off the milk and on to the meat of the Word. To do that, we need someone to help us. People are crying for something, sometimes for anything, looking for nourishment. The problem comes when we receive the help or Spiritual nourishment from the wrong person. There are false teachers among us, trying to deceive us. They may even believe the lie they teach but that doesn’t make it any less of a lie. Sometimes the need to be nourished is so overwhelming we accept anything that comes our way. Don’t forget to compare what someone says with the Scripture. Be aware of wolves in sheep’s clothing.
