Heaven’s Banquet

The Bible says that the Kingdom of God is like a great banquet. Well, I’m not sure what food will be on that banquet table in Heaven but if I could maybe make a few suggestions:

1. No buffet bar. They collect bacteria on earth and I’m pretty sure they do in heaven, too.

2. No butter beans. My mother made me eat enough as a child to last for all eternity.

3. No gravy. If God’s going to give me a new body, I don’t won’t to make it fat like my old one.

4. There MUST be milkshakes. If the Promise Land was a land of milk and honey, surely eternity can at least have milkshakes (and I prefer strawberry)!

5. Can we please make sure there is lots of Chick-fil-a. If you’ve ever had their chicken sandwich you know it’s pure heaven to the taste buds. So, it only makes sense that they serve it in Heaven.

Mornings

So it’s morning. The day is just beginning. Everything seems so innocent. There’s still dew on the ground, the coffee is brewing, there’s quiet in the house. I wonder what it was like at the dawn of creation? Was it as fresh as a new day’s dawning? Was the first sunrise any more spectaular than today’s? I like mornings!
