We will explore BABES -- Weeks 2-11.

Look on your phone calendar before Sunday and you will see a little number. This is counting the weeks, ending with Saturday.

Stage 1 -BABES are born... of the Spirit.

Jesus replied, "I assure you, no one can enter the Kingdom of God without being born of water and the Spirit. Humans can reproduce only human life, but the Holy Spirit gives birth to spiritual life. So don't be surprised when I say, 'You must be born again.' The wind blows wherever it wants. Just as you can hear the wind but can't tell where it comes from or where it is going, so you can't explain how people are born of the Spirit." John 3:5-8 NLT

Dear Babe in Christ-

Don't freak out! Have you prayed the prayer to God asking Him to help you be born-again from above? And you don't know what to do next? Is doubt starting to be a loud voice in your thinking about this decision? Take a breath in the midst of anxiety and put all the 'What if' questions aside for a minute as you sit quiet in the Presence of the LORD...and listen.

Find your GRATEFUL statements in His Word... who you are in Christ... what you have in His Kingdom... Who He is that will not change... What He has done that will not change... Find those foundational Truths on which to build your Faith!

Rest in Him! Let Him be the LORD as you surrender to Him the throne of your life...

Find a mature believer in Christ to talk to about your decision and how to grow in faith... and find a local community of believers (a church) where you can fellowship and learn where you fit in the Kingdom.

Pray for what you need in this moment... Ask for it... Seek for it... and keep Knocking until you find the answer in Him.
