FOOD FOR THE SOUL
“If more of us valued food and cheer and song above hoarded gold, it would be a merrier world.” –JRR Tolkien
At least three times a day, we pause for food. It’s routine, necessary, fun. Food also means a process – planning ahead. Food has to be grown, bought, prepared, and presented. It comes at a cost but there can be a strong sense of fellowship around each step of that process.
Much of the Bible describes events around food – seasonal feasts including the Passover Feast, wedding banquets including the wedding at Cana, feeding the hungry 5,000 and their families, and even a surprise breakfast of bread and fish with the resurrected Jesus on a sandy shore beside the Sea of Galilee.
Take a moment sometimes when you eat to close your eyes and place yourself on that shoreline, sitting in the sand, listening to the lap of water and the sound of oars on wood, smelling roasting fish and flatbreads – with Jesus nearby.
