PRAYER FOR ILLUMINATION

Loving and caring God, we come this morning seeking wisdom and guidance for our lives. Open us to your words of life and love and truth. AMEN.

Psalm 78:1-2, 34-38

78:1 Give ear, O my people, to my teaching; incline your ears to the words of my mouth.
78:2 I will open my mouth in a parable; I will utter dark sayings from of old,
78:34 When he killed them, they sought for him; they repented and sought God earnestly.
78:35 They remembered that God was their rock, the Most High God their redeemer.
78:36 But they flattered him with their mouths; they lied to him with their tongues.
78:37 Their heart was not steadfast toward him; they were not true to his covenant.
78:38 Yet he, being compassionate, forgave their iniquity, and did not destroy them; often he restrained his anger, and did not stir up all his wrath.

ABUNDANT HEALTH

Kitchen Mission

So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God. 1 Corinthians 10:31 (NIV)

In the kitchen, having the right things on hand equips you to succeed and is essential to your culinary success. Of course, the foundation of your basic pantry is complemented by an abundance of fresh, real, whole foods, but there are some everyday ingredients that will save you in a pinch and ensure that you are prepared to put together a quick, healthy meal in a matter of minutes. Stock your kitchen with everyday foods—namely, an abundance of fresh, non-starchy vegetables, lean protein, beans and legumes, whole grains, and seasonal fresh fruit.

PRAYER OF THANKSGIVING

Loving Father, Redeeming Son, and Holy Spirit: with our every breath, the very air that fills our lungs draws us closer to you. The water, food, and air that keep us alive are gifts from your goodness. Every gift we offer back to you is a result of our use of these basic gifts through your creation. We pray, through your love, that we may be found faithful stewards. In Christ, we pray. Amen.
