Yes, really. A box of brownies. The picture shared with me by a lovely young girl at a weekend conference this weekend. And while I was wondering "why brownies?" she continued with an interpretation of the picture she had seen.
"I saw God giving you a big white box of brownies. And then he said that you needed to stop and savour each individual brownie on its own. Not just munch and then put down the box. Each brownie has been specially and differently made, for you. Take the time to enjoy the flavours and patterns and tastes."
So I took a deep breath and stepped back from some hurried plans, and enjoyed the moment, then headed to the pause area to get some lunch. And lo and behold, I was offered a piece of brownie by the person on my left. I chuckled to myself and made sure I ate it slowly. Then the lovely lady on my left brought me a cup of coffee - and another brownie. By the end of lunch time I had a sugar high, and had got the point!
It's time to stop and savour what you bring my way, Lord, instead of rushing through life at high speed and then disappearing off to the next thing.
Noted!
