Pack a lunch

For the most part, I pack a lunch most days. It's nice to eat out occasionally but I don't want to eat out every day, plus it gets rather expensive. Some days, my lunch consists of leftovers from the night before. Some days, lunch is a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, which is still my second favorite sandwich (peanut butter and banana). It's important to partake of lunch.

We need consistent nourishment. If I was to eat only breakfast, I am afraid that by mid-day I would be a terrible person to be around. If I ate only dinner, I'd imagine that "not being a morning person" would take on a whole new meaning. People who try to do such things as these are the ones that usually end up giving up on their crash diets. We have to have consistent nourishment.

Today's word comes from the thought of consistent nourishment. We will use the scripture Hebrews 11:1, KJV, which reads, "Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen." But, the word is this thought/quote that says, "Feed your faith and your fears will starve to death."

Just as our bodies need consistent nourishment, so too does our faith. If we only feed our faith once a week, or less, we will become weak and everything, including our fears, will knock us for a loop. However, if we nourish our faith, as we do our physical self, we will find that we are strong enough to rely on GOD when things start going wrong.

There will be things that will crop up almost every day that will test our faith. If we haven't prepared for the fight by feeding our faith, we will find ourselves too weak to battle. Things are going to happen. Be prepared - PACK A LUNCH!

Be Blessed,
