Happy Meals

In our area, the restaurant with the large "golden arches" has had a January special where "Happy Meals" are only $1.99. In the current economy, if you are going to eat out at all, that is a pretty good way to make someone happy - a meal for $1.99.

I like the term "Happy Meal". I remember growing up and having family meals around the table. While I don't remember specifics about any certain meal, I do remember us all, as a family, having meals together. I also remember that they probably weren't all happy, especially if we were having fish, which I do not like.

Those times around the table, enjoying one another's company and family fellowship, will always be a dear memory. We try to have meals around the table now. We want to instill in our little one the importance of getting together as a family and giving thanks and enjoying GOD'S blessings together.

Today's word comes from Psalm 111:5, NIV, which reads, "He provides food for those who fear Him; He remembers His covenant forever."

We can rest assured that GOD is going to provide what we need: all the food, all the clothing, all the fellowship, everything. He promises to provide for those who serve Him, and He will do that forever!

Then, one day, He will call us home and we will feast at His table for eternity. We will enjoy the largest family meal, so large our feeble minds can't comprehend. What a day that will be! Maybe we won't have fish but even if we do, it will certainly be a HAPPY MEAL!

Be Blessed,
