Of all the things I could write about: the brotherhood, great Saturday meetings, 'more than 24', friendships, intimate sharing over breakfast, discipleship, new friends, fireworks, spiritual flak, I wanted to write about this...
Yesterday, a tremendously wonderful brother taught me how to eat a jaffa cake biscuit leaving the orange bit till last! You have to chip off round the edge of the cake, then you need to nibble or scrape off the chocolate, and lastly you have to lever the orange bit from the cake part with your tongue. Of course this brother is an absolute expert when it comes to the practice of appreciating food. He's pretty good at other things too, like being a 'guardian of Zion' and always putting 'the Kingdom' first.
And I love him and think he's great.
And why share on this moment when there are so many other momentous occasions I could write about? Because sometimes it's those silly moments of togetherness that shine like jewels in your day. Life is great, it's tough but it's great, and it deserves celebration.
Would this brother be able to teach you how to eat the orange bit without the "chaff" that surrounds it?

One day, I'll teach you how to make a Chocolato Supernatralto; and then maybe we'll move onto the Supernatriple-decker Eggi-Onioni-Garlici-Toasti; or maybe the Home-made McDonalds Milkshake (using NCCC ingredients). Stick with me, and you'll go a long way. Mmm. Ever had an Atomic Pancake?...
ReplyDeleteThe Toasti sounds just grand and have learnt how to do shakes like McD's myself,about the only decent McD thing
