God's bounty


Bubba and I will be cranking up the new
Viking stove tomorrow
for the first big feed in the new house.
I drove down to the island this morning 
to get some fresh veggies to cook.

The occasion is Harry's sixth birthday 
and we are all very excited to celebrate with him.
When I asked him last week 
what he wanted to eat for his big day, 
he said promptly,
"corn-on-the-cob."
He will not be disappointed!

Just over my shoulder and out of the window,
God has sent 
a wonderful rain for us to enjoy.

I wonder how many of us take the time to thank God
for all of the provisions that He gives to us
each and every day.
Look above at His creativity
even in making our food so beautiful and appealing.

"Then God said,
Let the earth bring forth grass,
the herb that yields seed,
and the fruit tree that yields fruit according to its kind,
whose seed is in itself,
on the earth; and it was so.

And the earth brought forth grass,
the herb that yields seed according to its kind,
and the tree that yields fruit,
whose seed is in itself according to its kind,
and God saw that it was good."
Genesis 1:11&12

All things come from God our Father
who made heaven and earth and all that there is therein.
Praise to His holy name......
and....thank You!!!!
