I own many church cookbooks, dating all the way back to the late 1950’s. One includes this wisdom: 

Recipe for Life

Mix together: 

1 cup good thoughts

1 cup kind deeds

1 cup consideration for others

Add:

3 cups forgiveness

2 cups well-beaten faults

Mix thoroughly with:

Tears of joy and sorrow, and sympathy for others

Flavor mixture well with little gifts of love and kindly service.

Use 4 cups of prayer and faith to lighten the other ingredients, and to raise the texture to great heights in daily living.

Bake well in the heat of human kindness.

Serve with a smile.

This Sunday’s message, Remember and Repeat, is a helpful recipe for joyful living. Phil Woodard, Christ Church School instructor of music, will offer the message. Please read Exodus 3:13-15 to prepare your heart for worship. 

Invite a friend, neighbor, or family member to join you in worship. You will both be blessed. 

Peace,

Pastor Cathy Johns
