We could all use a little of this....

I was thumbing through one of my mom's old cookbooks this morning and found the greatest recipe! It's an old cookbook compiled with recipes from members of a Mennonite church. In light of all the bad news, fires, deaths, and general rudeness of some people today, I think a lot of us could benefit from a healthy portion of this recipe. This made me smile, and I hope it does the same for you:

Recipe For Life:

MIX TOGETHER:
1 C. good thoughts
1 C. kind deeds
1 C. consideration
2 C. sacrifice for others
3 C. forgiveness
Then add 2 C. of well beaten faults

This is to be mixed thoroughly with tears of joy and sorrow, as well as plenty of sympathy. Flavor the mixture well with little gifts of love and kindness. Use 4 cups of prayer and faith to lighten the other ingredients and raise the texture to great heights in daily living. Bake well in the heat of human kindness and serve with a smile.

Hope you all have a great Wednesday!
