A WHOLESOME MEAL!

David and I stopped at Cracker Barrell,for lunch today, and I had the vegetable platter.One of my favorite combinations to get on the platter is pinto beans;fried apples;cole slaw;green beans,and sometimes,I even get the macaroni!
When Grandmother served pinto beans, she always made "Spakious"(spakee-us) to go along with it.This were tiny bits of salt pork, which were fried, and added to the bland pinto beans to give them a salty flavor.It gave them just the right amount of zest too without going too far! I was wishing I had some today, when I was eating too!
This reminded me of how we are to season our speech, when talking.We are to let our speech be filled with grace; as seasoned with salt. Just like that spakious helps flavor the pinto beans, so I know God's word will help our speech too!Infact,using God's word, gives us a wholesome meal!
