JC, this has been shown over and over on the news here - a cat was stuck up on a saguaro cactus for over three days! Look at the local Fox news broadcast here: (We all watched it, as attempts were made to rescue it, hoping it would not fall. They say the cactus was 20 feet tall, but it is more like 40 feet tall!)

Poor little baby. Its bound to have some stickers in it. I was so happy to know it got down! I feel for little innocent animals. I imagine it was chased by something or she/he would have not climbed that huge cactus!!

We all watched, as hellicopters flew over, and animal specialists surrounded the cactus, trying to decide how to get the poor thing down.

Everyone hoped they could somehow tranqualize the animal, before removing it from the needles. But......it decided there was too much attention, I guess, and chose to exit the cactus it’s OWN way! LOL!

JC, here is a closeup of the needles on a Saguaro Cactus.
That poor cat must have endured some very painful pricks!

Baby Food
November 15, 2011

Have you ever tasted baby food? I have. It’s terribly bland. But babies have no other choice without teeth. They certainly can’t eat a nice, juicy steak!

Sadly, some Christians are content with spiritual baby food. They are happy to go over and over the simple truths of the Scriptures and don’t move beyond the basics of the gospel (Heb. 6:1-2). By not sinking their teeth into deeper truths and more difficult Bible passages, they lack biblical understanding and convictions to make right choices (5:13). They may have been Christians for many years, but their spiritual abilities remain underdeveloped. They remain babies.

As children grow physically, they learn to eat solid food that gives them strength and vitality. In the same way, every believer needs to take on the responsibility to feed himself on solid spiritual food. To fail to do this is to remain spiritually weak and undernourished.

You can roughly tell the physical age of people by how they look. Their spiritual age is revealed by their ability to distinguish good from evil and by their personal character that’s shown day by day.

Is this spiritual discernment evident in your life? Or are you still on spiritual baby food?

To handle the Word of truth
Takes diligence and care,
So make the time to study it
And then that truth declare. —Hess

Apply yourself to the Scriptures and the Scriptures to yourself.

Read: Hebrews 5:12–6:2

Solid food belongs to those who are of full age, that is, those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil. —Hebrews 5:14
Bible in a year:
Ezekiel 1-2; Hebrews 11:1-19

Good post, Mayor. Sometimes the truth doesn’t come that easily.
