It was back in 2006 when I posted this:

I am still so proud of it, I thought I’d re-post it. I mean, geesh, I got a comment from an Irish person. A legitimate one, Kurt checked.
We have been doing a very European eating/cooking style lately… I would have said French specifically, but to be honest, it seems like the French really only ever eat red wine and baguettes.
We talk on the way home from work about what sounds good, then we agree, meet at home, see what we need to make it (if anything..usually we need something).
Then we walk to the store with our canvas bags and get the few items we need.
We go home make it and eat it.
The night is still young (and super sunny), we waste less food, we eat something fresh (and exactly what we want right then), we have had a walk and we get double points for using our own bags. Win-Win-Win.
I know this will not always be the case for us but for our lifestyle right now, it works.
Fruit of the Spirit is often used to describe the best aspects of a Godly character. Here are some ways to improve your character.
Exchange…
- Your weakness for His strength.
- Your unhappy heart for His joy.
- Your annoyance with His love.
- Your anxiety with His peace.
- Your impatience for His patience.
- Your complaining for His contentment.
- Your harsh attitude for His gentleness.
How??? You can depend on God to be your source for all your needs. Psalm 40
