[SuzyQue]

I’ll be the first French Toast in.

You Are French Toast
You are a bit of a rule breaker and a rebel. You always do things your own way.
You’re the type of person to order breakfast for dinner - and dinner for breakfast!

You have a quirky twist on everything you do. You are very creative and original.
You get a kick out of trying out new restaurants, and old school diners are at the top of your list.

Chicken Fried Steak :)

[sionnsar]

OMG! I LOVE grilled cheese!! (I don't think it's very Scottish though -- maybe deep-fried cheese...?)

You Are Grilled Cheese

You are easygoing and easy to please. You don't like change, and people can count on you to be consistent.
You don't need or ask for much. If you have the basics satisfied, you're happy.

You are a loyal and true friend. Your friends know to only expect the best from you.
You are a very "what you see is what you get" person and well liked for it. You are simply a delight.

You Are Chicken Fried Steak

You are bold and fearless. You tend to think big, and that includes eating big.
If you're going to go out to eat, then you're going to order something amazing. No salads for you!

You live in the now. You figure the future is uncertain, so you might as well just make the best of today.
You don't believe in moderation or holding back. You just go for it, consequences be damned.

Behind The Scenes
January 12, 2011

Recently I attended a memorial service for a gifted musician whose life had touched many people. The tribute to this Christian woman included video and audio clips, photos, instrumentalists, and speakers. After everyone had left the church, I stopped to thank the technicians whose flawless work at the control board had contributed so much to this moving tribute. “No one noticed what you did,” I told them. “That’s the way we like it,” they replied.

In Matthew 6, Jesus told His disciples to give (vv.1-4), pray (vv.5-6), and fast (vv.16-18) in order to please God, not to gain praise from people. “When you pray, go into your room, and when you have shut your door, pray to your Father who is in the secret place” (v.6). Whether giving, praying, or fasting, Jesus said, “Your Father who sees in secret will reward you openly” (vv.4,6,18).

Something within us makes us want to be seen and recognized for our good deeds. While there’s nothing wrong with encouragement and appreciation, a desire for praise can undermine our service because it shifts the focus from others to ourselves. When there is no public “thank you,” we may feel slighted. But even when we serve God in secret, He sees it all.

The service that we do for God
May go unpraised by men;
But when we stand before the Lord,
He will reward us then. —Sper

It is better to earn recognition without getting it than to get recognition without earning it.

Read: Matthew 6:1-6,16-18

Your Father who sees in secret will reward you openly. —Matthew 6:6

Bible in a year:
Genesis 29-30; Matthew 9:1-17

You Are a Milkshake

You are a naturally sweet person who loves to have fun. You always have something to smile about.
You have a very optimistic attitude, and you light up a room with your laugh.

You see the best in everyone, and you rarely give into negativity. You think bad thoughts are toxic.
You are willing to give anything a chance, but when it comes to what you love, you tend to stick to your old favorites.

You Are Meatloaf

You are old fashioned and traditional. In fact, you'd go as far as to call yourself retro.
You have a strong appreciation for the classics, especially forgotten classics. Why try to invent the wheel?

You prefer well established restaurants with menus that don't change. An old diner is right up your alley.
You're also the type most likely to always order the same thing. Why mess with perfection?
