Tradition and family mean a great deal to you. You love Thanksgiving because it brings everyone together. Why have that warm experience just once a year? Turkey and dressing is for life, not late November. Yeah! |
“Quiz: Which vintage frozen TV dinner is your soul food?”
“You are a Swiss Steak Dinner”
BTW...I got nine out of nine green checkmarks!
You are a Fried Shrimp Dinner
Uh....
There can be only one
Turkey dinner
Turkey Dinner for me too. My favorite part of Thanksgiving is when the turkey comes down the chimney and distributes brightly colored eggs to everyone in costume. At least I think that’s what happens.
You are a Meat Loaf Dinner
Yeah, I like meatloaf.
German style. Personally I prefer the Salisbury steak (if the sauce is not to blue).
Sounds right to me! 🤣
“Meatloaf, beetloaf....I hate meatloaf!”
Well, since that’s the one you were given, I’m glad YOU like it! LOL!
I got the Hunter Biden meal. A Big Chicken Dinner!
Yeah, blue sauce is a deal killer! LOL!
LOL! I think he’s more liverish. :)
Champagne may have been involved...
Bible in a Year:
You have struggled with God and with humans and have overcome.
A carved wooden figure—a household god—had been stolen from a woman named Ekuwa, so she reported it to the authorities. Believing they had found the idol, law enforcement officials invited her to identify it. “Is this your god?” they asked. She said sadly, “No, my god is much larger and more beautiful than that.”
People have long tried to give shape to their concept of deity, hoping for a handmade god to protect them. Perhaps that’s why Jacob’s wife Rachel “stole her father’s household gods” as they fled from Laban (Genesis 31:19). But God had His hand on Jacob, despite the idols hidden in his camp (v. 34).
Later, on that same journey, Jacob wrestled all night with “a man” (32:24). He must have understood this opponent was no mere human, because at daybreak Jacob insisted, “I will not let you go unless you bless me” (v. 26). The man renamed him Israel (“God fights”) and then blessed him (vv. 28–29). Jacob called the spot Peniel (“face of God”), “because I saw God face to face, and yet my life was spared” (v. 30).
This God—the one true God—is infinitely larger and more beautiful than anything Ekuwa could have ever imagined. He can’t be carved, stolen, or hidden. Yet, as Jacob learned that night, we can approach Him! Jesus taught His disciples to call this God “our Father in heaven” (Matthew 6:9).
Reflect & Pray
How would you describe God? How might your ideas of Him be too limited?
Heavenly Father, forgive me for seeing You as smaller than You really are. Help me embrace the reality of who You truly are.
That ‘splains a lot.
Or not. :)
Hey there, Rus! Hope things are moving along with those mixers! Thanks for our beautiful lesson from God’s Word!
