Rom For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;
When I was a child, my mom liked to make breakfast food for dinner every now an then. I remember one night in particular when she had made breakfast after a long hard day at work. On that evening so long ago, my mom placed a plate of eggs, sausage, and extremely burnt biscuits in front of my dad.
I remember waiting to see if anyone noticed! Yet all my dad did was smile at mom and ask me how my day went at school. I don’t remember what I told him that night, but I do remember watching him smear butter and jelly on that biscuit and eat every bite!
When I got up from the table that evening, I remember hearing my mom apologize to my dad for burning the biscuits. I’ll never forget what my dad said: “Honey, I love burnt biscuits”.
Later that evening, I went to tell my dad good night and I asked him if he really liked his biscuits burnt. He looked at me and said, “Your mom put in a hard day at work and she’s real tired. Besides that – a little burnt biscuit never hurt anyone!”
How much Praying with YOU in mind,
Written by, Evangelist: Frank Mc Gee ~
What a sweet, sweet man your dad must have been!!
