Macaroni and Ham
Feb 5th, 2008 by BradT
I was in the office.
With a mind of food, I was thinking what I should take
for my dinner.
I remembered the macaroni that I bought the previous
day with some ham.
Macaroni and ham.
That was a delicious combination to make a simple
dish.
What should be the other ingredients to add some
tastes?
As only a simple dish, I believed and decided a simple
taste should be just fine.
A bit of salt and pepper.
Onion will add some fragrance to the dish too.
Immediately after reaching home, I set my feet quickly
into the kitchen.
Cut the ham, the onion into small pieces.
Boiled the macaroni to soft.
Heated up some oil in the frying pan, poured in the
onion and ham, stir-fried
about 2 minutes.
Put in the macaroni. Fried it for 2 minutes. Added
some pepper.
That was it.
Delicious.
Even my roommate, praised the taste.
If we want to lead a simple life, we should just have
’simple taste’.
Not clutters of worries, demands, doubts and
dissatisfaction.
Worries of what we should eat or wear so that we can
be better than our neigbours?
Demands of having all the facilities of life that the
advertisements said we should
have?
You know, that is ‘Better life’????
Or even in your faith, you believe, that is ‘Life in
abundance’?
Doubts in people? In relationships? That we forget to
extend GRACE to others as
what Heavenly Father has lavished on us and continued
to believe us.
Dissatisfaction with everything you are and you have.
That is a false measurement that you have used. You
should have used “Thanksgiving” to
compare.
A simple life is what I believe ” Life in abundance”.
A beautiful promise in JOHN 10:10 that I believe we
will all possess if we
set our minds on heavenly rewards and giving.
The great gain comes with just some salt of
contentment and pepper of thankgiving.
