It’s beautiful how He meets us right where we ar

It’s beautiful how He meets us right where we are, even in the small details—like finding something special in the snow after a hard morning.

If someone wants to know God, the best place to start is by seeking Him through His Word. The Bible says in Jeremiah 29:13, “You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.”

Here are a few steps to begin that journey:
1. Talk to Him (Prayer) – You don’t need fancy words; just be honest with God. Ask Him to reveal Himself to you.
2. Read the Bible – Start with the book of John in the New Testament. It introduces Jesus and His love for us.
3. Believe in Jesus – John 3:16 says, “For God so loved the world that He gave His only Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life.” Jesus came to restore our relationship with God.
4. Find a Community – A Bible-teaching church or a small group of believers can encourage and guide you.
5. Be Open to His Presence – Sometimes, God speaks through nature, circumstances, or even a quiet peace in your heart. Keep your eyes and heart open.

I am not perfect by any means and fail at these things most days but with His grace we are able to ask for forgiveness and praise Him.

🔥 Burnt Your Sourdough? Don’t Toss It—Make Croutons! 🥖➡️🥗

We’ve all been there—your sourdough loaf got a little too crispy. But don’t worry, you can still turn it into something delicious! Homemade croutons are the perfect way to save your hard work and reduce food waste.

✨ Here’s how:
1️⃣ Trim off any overly burnt parts.
2️⃣ Cut the bread into bite-sized cubes.
3️⃣ Toss with olive oil, salt, garlic powder, and herbs.
4️⃣ Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 10-15 minutes until golden and crispy.

Now you’ve got the perfect crunchy topping for soups and salads! Who knew a baking mishap could taste so good? 😋
