Ick on a plate



Yesterday, I found an article in the Huffington Post that talked about the 10 disgusting things we eat of which we may or may not be aware.  Secretions from the anus of beavers is one of them - seems it is used in vanilla flavored items.  I am not excited about consuming beaver ANYTHING much less  stuff from its back end.


Ugh.  I have resolved to never eat anything that might closely resemble vanilla flavored from now on.


Does this ever happen to you?  You are made aware of something and it strengthens your resolve to avoid something for a time, although often we "return to our folly" or in this case, our vanilla flavoring.


I want to be stronger than that.  I want my resolutions to be resolute.  I want all the vanilla items in my life to be legitimate.


I am glad that God never goes back on His promises.  He never resolves to do something only to fail when tempted. 


He is good.  Even when I am weak. :)


Psalm 89:2 "I will declare that your love stands firm forever, that you have established your faithfulness in heaven itself."


Blessings!  Amberly
