Blessing 285 - Clean Your Plate!

Just had some left over Edamame on a plate and no one wanted to finish them. I praise God that we can afford to not eat everything on our plate. We are blessed beyond compare! I know there are so many people in the world that go hungry every single day. We are so fortunate to always have food in our kitchens. So. maybe the next time you still have some great food left on your plate, it won't hurt to to make a clean plate. I'm very thankful for every meal I am given by the loving hands of my Heavenly Father!

Blessing 78 - Butter Waffle Cookies

I discovered a new love!
BELGIUM BUTTER WAFFLE COOKIES!

It's from Trader Joe's...a yummy alternative to the regular waffle cones you usually stuff with ice cream! It was so good eating THEM as is! Even the men at my Bible Study today went back for seconds and thirds! I simply ate it plain with my cup of tea and enjoyed every bite.

YOU NEED TO GO GET A BOX OF YOUR OWN!
NO KIDDING!

Praise God for simple pleasures and new sweet discoveries!

Blessing 46 - Cracker Jack

Tastes Just as Good as You Remember!

As it turned out, I never got my Pink Popcorn. But I did eat some Cracker Jacks today! It was just as fun eating them as it was trying to dig out the prize inside! Now that's something that you won't get from Pink Popcorn...a prize! There's always something to be positive about and thankful for when you can't have what you really want. Sometimes, what you end up with may actually come with an unexpected and sweet surprise. Sometimes, it may actually have a greater blessing for you. Sometimes, God brings someone into your life to help you see other alternatives to your desires...and I am so grateful for that!

The little quote at the bottom of the Cracker Jack Box reads "Taste Just as Good as You Remember!" The first piece of popcorn that I ate did bring back nice memories as a child...not to mention that it did taste pretty good! I remember wishing for that Cracker Jack ring or those fun tattoos all the time!

When I remember what the Lord Jesus has done for me, I can't help but praise Him for His faithfulness and goodness in all my days. As I feast upon God's Word, each verse is like a sweet morsel within my heart and mind. When it's hard for me to remain content, I immediately think back on how great He has been and how wonderful He continues to be. Even though I may not always get what I want, I know He will always have the best in store for me.

Psalm 34:8
Taste and see that the LORD is good; blessed is the man who takes refuge in him.
