Reading the Ingredient Labels on EVERYTHING in Our Homes…


There is a growing concern regarding the ingredients that food industries are sneaking inside our favorite products. Some are easy to discern as "bad" such as high fructose corn syrup and MSG. Others are cloaked in fancy wording, making it harder to decipher. We may even read the labels in health food store items since they can't always be trusted. You would hate to feed your family tainted, adulterated goods! Their health is at stake and we know how important it is to properly feed our bodies.

Sadly, when it comes to purchasing books, videos, toys and other "character foods" for our children, we often look at the cover and deem it "good" with a quick glance. If it is found at a Christian store, we may not even bother to read the content... {Please continue reading this article at Deep Roots at Home where I am guest posting today... Thank you!}

  1. Oh yes, with all things that we do, and all things that we give to our children, of any people, first we have to think: Wat's the will of God?
    I just read a book 'a woman naar Gods hart',from Elizabeth George, and it opend my eyes!

  2. When I read your post, I couldn't help but remember this scripture: "Physical training is good, but training for godliness is much better, promising benefits in this life and in the life to come." (1 Timothy 4:8). It's so true that we have to read the "ingredients" on everything and anything that we decide to bring into our homes. It's not always easy though.

    Great analogy! :)
