That last piece of chicken doe'.............

I am so mad I didn't think to take a picture of the chicken BEFORE I demolished it, lol! But this short and simple encouraging word came after I finished it, but was inspired by no more bottles of water being in my fridge :-(....I'll explain it in just a sec. Hang in there with me, lol!

LMBO! This chicken was sooo good!
Okay, have you ever wanted something sooooooooo bad & had your mind set on digging in to it after coming home from a long day's work, just getting up in the morning, getting up in the middle of the night, coming from outside in the scorching heat etc. only to find out it wasn't there???? If you're anything like me, I sometimes can get "4:30 hot" (a slang term used for the word- MAD, lol!) when something that I've been longing for is no longer there or either someone takes the very last of something without being considerate and asking first. It really burns my biscuits sometimes.

No more water :-( Can you say THIRSTY?
So today, I had my mind set on drinking a cold bottle of water only to go to my fridge & find out someone had gotten to it before I did. And guess what, its was the LAST bottle, smh. No, I wasn't mad but I did have my mind set on drinking the contents :-/  So instead, I just put some ice in a cup, found a half bottle of water I had drank the night before, poured it over the ice, and continued on my marry way. My mom cooked & asked if I wanted a plate and of course I couldn't turn it down (YUM!), so she brought it over along with cabbage greens & cornbread.... and I straight "murked" it (a slang term used for the word- ATE, lol!). After finishing and looking at my empty plate, I had one last piece of chicken left but wished I had another piece as well just because it was so good  :-/ bummer, BUT I was satisfied & thankful anyways.

Okay, on to what I'm trying to say.....
NO MATTER HOW LITTLE YOU 'THINK' YOU HAVE, GOD ALWAYS PROVIDES ANOTHER WAY TO SATISFY YOU! Though what I had been longing for (the bottle of water) was gone, he still provided a way for me to be satisfied (ice & just enough water to drink) and made a way to quench my thirst.

DEMOLISHED, lol! But I thank God for providing JUST what I needed.
NO MATTER HOW MUCH YOU "THINK" YOU NEED, GOD ALWAYS PROVIDES ENOUGH! Though my 'mind' wanted more chicken (lol!), my spirit said you have enough. The same goes for God. Our flesh continues to want more, but GOD continues to provide enough even when we think we have less.

Isn't that good news? I hope you understood what I was saying in this post. What a way to bring in an encouraging word with chicken & water, ey'???? Hahahahaha! :-)



Thank you Lord for INCREASE in every area of my life!
