Recipe for Life




Who we are is like the ingredients of a cake. Think about it, if you were baking a cake and you did not get the ingredients right, no matter how pretty you ice it on the outside, if it does not taste right on the inside, it is not going to work.

Our insides are just like those ingredients in the cake. If we mix in the wrong amount and negative things, that is what we will get, what we will be, who we will become, no matter how well we dress on the outside or how pretty we are born. Imagine if you were making a cake and you put in depressing thoughts, anger, negative feelings, hurt, despair, fear. Can you imagine how this cake would taste? Instead consider positive ingredients and the difference it would make.

We have to add all good ingredients in the right amount (which in this case means balance). Even the tiniest pinch of too much salt can ruin the whole thing. Without flour, it cannot bind together. Without sugar, it is not sweet. Without baking powder or soda, it will not rise. Without egg or milk, it will not moisten and change form. Without flavoring, it will be bland. We have to add the appropriate doses of faith, love, peace, joy, kindness, goodness, gentleness, meekness and temperance, most of these are the fruit of the Spirit. We are given this recipe in Galatians 5:22-23 “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, 23 Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.”

If we follow this mix, we can be assured that we are using the right ingredients to becoming a healthy, happy and whole individual.




Follow the light of your heart!



Many blessings.

Words Across Time

Words linger. Whether it is audible, something spoken to us or something we read, words linger in our minds and stick like glue. Words are one of the few things that set us apart from all the other animals and living things, we can speak. Is it any wonder that the memory of a mother’s soft coo can so strongly calm and send us to the kitchen for a cup of coco or that the memory of a scolding can set us trembling? Words are positive, negative or neutral; neutral words have little effect but words of a positive or negative nature can lift up and inspire or tear down and destroy. In a sense, they are our strongest power and thus the power of words move with us across time. St. Catherine Christine de Pisan Whether I am reading the Bible or an ancient manuscript crafted out a thousand or more years ago by isolated monks on some remote island or a contemporary twentieth century author who has now passed, it never ceases to amaze me that I get to hear their thoughts acr...
