The Mix
A recipe for life,
living, loving,
and being happy?
Why is this so hard?
Flour, or flower?
The first to eat,
the second to enjoy...
to smell.
Sugar?
Cane or white, or brown?
Honey is the best
choice all around.
Milk goes with honey,
like sunshine on rain.
No baking is better,
that is plain.
Salt?
We need salt
like we need God.
We need it to be...
alive.
To be without,
is to die,
a sad...
lonely,
passing.
Yeast...
rising and dancing
to unseen music.
Causing the loaf
to dance too.
Ingredients for getting
from one point to the next.
Bake and share
the very bread of Jesus.
Speak His name in the light,
say His name in the dark...
never be without
the master baker,
in your life.
