Ministry of Meals

Someday will be time to explore the thought that God seems to be challenging the Passenger on her list of "I will not" in life.  

But today, the task of procuring, organizing, preparing, and transporting food for another week of warm meals for school children.

Last week looked like this... 

Last night looked like this...

This resembles planning and packing food for a trip to the mountains, every week.

The Trucker is very supportive.  Helpful when fetching and carrying.  Gracious when hours in the kitchen are wearying and long.  Generous with finances.

The Passenger is not a stellar preparer of food.  She gets the job done, but it is basic, not an art form.  Think, cook to live, not live to cook.

And here is what keeps her in a constant state of wonderment - while called to do this, she doesn't enjoy any part of the process.  

But what has been learned?  When God calls, one answers.  Even if it is not one's preferred task.  He will supply the energy, motivation, ability.  Certainly the time and resources.  And the protection.

The question remains, why do You want me to do This, when I'd really rather be doing That??

And until the answer comes, I commit to wait and do This, while praying about That.
