Did you ever notice that the higher you advanced in the educational system, the quieter and more attentive the students became? Finally, as we approached those last few years of college when the majority of our classes were in our chosen fields, discipline problems virtually disappeared. We had matured to the point that we understood our need for the things we were being taught. Maybe that explains a lot about those who choose to miss Bible studies or simply choose not to study the Bible at all, in spite of claiming to believe it.
(from Growing Toward Spiritual Maturity by Dene Ward)
For everyone who lives on milk is unskilled in the word of righteousness, since he is a child. But solid food is for the mature, for those who have their powers of discernment trained by constant practice to distinguish good from evil (Heb 5:13-14).
