Sticker Shock

My body is a temple, but I seem to be addicted to filling it with rubbish! Yes, I am a junk food junkie!

It doesn’t help my addiction with junk food since manufacturers make all those processed goodies taste so yummy!

Nor does it help that grocery stores seem to pride themselves on making those same foods so cheap and easy on the wallet!

However, I am resolved to eating healthy and purchasing only whole foods. So, when i went shopping the other day, I found myself reeling from sticker shock when the cashier told me the total!

Staggering from the price of the few items I chose, made my being an advocate for growing and raising your own food stronger than ever!

So, once I got home, and after putting our few, meager, but expensive groceries away, I immediately went out to check on our little garden! I want to make doubly sure that it’s being nurtured and well taken care of!

And yes, I even prayed over it!

It may not be large in size, but with the rising costs of food, we need our little patch of paradise to provide as much food as possible!

What’s more, our efforts to find a traditional homestead has become all the more urgent! But until then, we’ve planted what we can… and we’ve watered… the rest is up to Him!

Until next time,

Peace, love and safe travels!
