SPIRITUAL GROWTH IS LIKE A BABY TOOTH
ITS LIKE PULLING A BABY TOOTH AS A KID.
You're scared for it to fall out,
scared of the pain that might come.
When it happens, though,
you realize there was nothing that you needed to fear.
Now, a bigger tooth can grow in,
a strong healthy adult one.
Strong enough to bite through apples
and eat so much more delicious food.
You get excited
You really dont care about the old tooth anymore;
the old tooth is shedded from you like a snake.
You have this great new tooth being created in you.
"Woaoooh!"
"That didnt really hurt!"
With nothing lost, you shrug it off with a 'Sigh Of Relief'
You laugh and you smile and you show mommy and say,
"Look! Look at me now!"
Can you guess how mommy responds?
