Use What You Have

on December 18, 2015

Last night my son waited until the grocery store closed and I was in the bed to tell me he had to make a Mexican dish for extra credit and it was due this morning. I asked him why do you always wait until the last minute to tell me you need something. I laid in bed for a while because I knew I didn’t go grocery shopping and there was nothing I could make. However, I got up and began to look in the freezer, and there was some chicken, then I looked in the cabinets and there was some black beans, rice, and canned diced tomatoes. I looked in my spice cabinet and there was some cumin, pepper, salt and a little taco seasoning. I slow cooked that chicken and shredded it and added it to the rest of the ingredients and we had a Mexican dish. My son called me from school and was like; mom they ate it up.

I said all of that to say this; sometimes we are always praying to God to give us more, and he’s telling us to use what we already have. Many times we think if we don’t have an abundance than we don’t have enough, that is so far from the truth. When we have Jesus we have more than enough. So stop looking at the little you have and stop thinking you can’t make it; bless it, and let God stretch it for you.

Be blessed and continue to be a blessing.
