Baby Steps Are the Biggest

Have you ever been overwhelmed by the irreducible basic beliefs of the Christian faith?

1) There is one almighty creator God, and he is good

2) We are loved by God

3) His son, Jesus, was crucified for the sake of humanity

We receive such great teaching on relevant topics which can transform aspects of our lives, refresh us, even bring healing or inspiration, but is there any truth or teaching we can receive as great as this? Is there anything better than knowing that the one true God loves us so much that he sent his son to die for us?

When everything else is falling apart, these three truths will always hold strong. These three truths can never be undone.

Although we can all recite these basic beliefs of our faith, we can probably fish out some memory verses to back them up (John 3:16 anyone?) but how often do you stop to truly reflect on them?

I encourage you to strengthen that rock which your faith is built upon by immersing yourself in these truths. These are the things that you discovered, perhaps felt overwhelmed by, when you first became a Christian, a baby in your faith. Learn from that time when God was doing amazing things in your life because you were so open to him and his love. Baby steps are the biggest steps.

"For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith - and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God - not by works, so that no one can boast"

Ephesians 2:8-9
