Recipes for Growing in Faith - Keep on thinking and thanking!
A recipe from Robert Forward
- As you sit down to a meal, grab a Bible and read James 5:13.
- Say thanks to God for the meal and start eating.
- As you eat, have a bit of an around the table brainstorm and think about all the people that contributed to you being able to eat your meal! For example: farmers, pickers and packers, transport workers, shop workers, bag makers, butchers, people who make plates, knives, forks etc etc.
- Give thanks to God and ask him to bless ALL the people who were involved in getting your meal to you.
- Next time you meet someone who contributes to you getting your meals (e.g. shop worker, storeperson) give them a big smile and say THANKS for what they do.
