Dearest homemaker,
Let us not underestimate the powers of love and spiritual growth that a home cooked meal served side-by-side provides for the family. There is nothing like a satisfied taste bud to bring about joy. There is beauty in this time around the table, when hands are clasped and a prayer of gratitude is given. This valuable age-old tradition, is a sacred part of the “old paths” of the New Testament believers who also gathered in one accord. The “fruit” that came forth from that fellowship was nothing less than amazing… Which blessings will be bestowed on your family when you take the time to serve a meal around the kitchen table?

“And they continued stedfastly in the apostles' doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers…. and many wonders and signs were done by the apostles.”
~Acts 2:42-43b

ReplyDeleteWhat beautiful words!!! Thank you!!
ReplyDeleteLove your table...and all your articles. Thankful for you.
ReplyDeleteSo true! Simple meals, gathered together, giving thanks.
ReplyDeleteI still have the old table we used on the farm for many years. It is about 150 years old. It creaks a bit but still useable. We fed people from all over the world around that table. Now it serves as a creative crafting place.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE that!!! :)
DeleteThank you for that beautiful image. Yes, our Thanksgiving was filled with so much joy and laughter around the table. Just the harmony of being together!
ReplyDeleteAnd that pie looks delicious. Just 2 of us in our home, however I always set the table. Something we always did when growing up. I also have flowers in the centre. Great snippet and encouraging scripture.
