of breakfast.

 

a bit of thinking:

i'm hoping today finds you well-rested & refreshed 

with the offering of this day being a gift 

from the Almighty. 

the fact you're awake is evidence of his gracious 

consideration that today is a day worth living 

in full light of his glory. 

that's how i see it...what i know to be true.

and since his gift is evident, 

treating it in a bespoke manner is a gift

to him in return.

aside from the routine of the day

which rarely alters when it comes

to home keeping, what is it that can

be made that much more special in an allotted time?

is there something even within home keeping

which can offer unexpected joy...

to God, to a family member, to yourself?

worthy of consideration.

a bit of gastronomy: 

a recent breakfast was extra special pleasing

to assemble, to view, and to consume..

like a banquet in a bowl,

such a treat.

the ingredients are as follows:

fresh made plain yogurt

fresh made cereal

wheat bran

banana

bee pollen

so simple yet so delectable

a bit of encouragement:

"Imitate those who through faith and patience

inherit what has been promised."

{Hebrews 6:12}

"The biblical heroes of faith call to us from the heights they have won, encouraging us that what man once did, man can do again. They remind us not only of the necessity of faith but also of the patience required for faith's work to be perfected. May we fear attempting to remove ourselves from the hands of our heavenly Guide or missing even one lesson of His loving discipline due to our discouragement or doubt."
