God is great, God is good. Let us thank Him for our food...

Did you know that the children's meal time prayer is longer?  I didn't.  I had learned this part:

God is great, God is good.  Let us thank Him for our food.  Amen.

Here is the whole meal time prayer:

"God is Great, God is Good.
Let us thank Him for our food.
By His hands we all are fed, give us Lord our daily bread.
Amen."  (source: world prayers )

I've been thinking about my dilemma of eating from my freezer and my pantry.  I really want to do this...why is it so hard?  I keep looking at all the new things that I could make and then I'm discontent with what I already have.

I've found that it comes down to contentment.

So, I'm brought back to my dilemma.  I can show my contentment through getting back to eating from my pantry/freezer.  I can be reminded that by God's hands I am fed.

So, I'm up and running cooking from my pantry/freezer/fridge.  Last night I made a great shredded pork in the Crockpot and today we ate it as taco salad.  I want to defrost my freezer by Spring break so I better stop shopping at the store and get stuff from my freezer.  :)
 
I'm thanking God for His daily provision of not just food, but for His word, my family and friends, getting me up each morning, and His great love for me.
