When I was a kid, my Mom liked to make breakfast food for dinner every now and then. I remember one night in particular when she had made breakfast after a long, hard day at work. On that evening so long ago, my Mom placed a plate of eggs, sausage and extremely burned biscuits in front of my dad. I remember waiting to see if anyone noticed! All my dad did was reach for his biscuit, smile at my Mom and ask me how my day was at school. I don’t remember what I told him that night, but I do remember watching him smear butter and jelly on that ugly burned biscuit. He ate every bite of that thing…never made a face nor uttered a word about it! When I got up from the table that evening, I remember hearing my Mom apologize to my dad for burning the biscuits. And I’ll never forget what he said, “Honey, I love burned biscuits every now and then.” Later that night, I went to kiss Daddy good night and I asked him if he really liked his biscuits burned. He wrapped me in his arms and said, PART 1

“Your Mom put in a
hard day at work today and she’s real
tired. And besides–a little burned biscuit never hurt anyone!”
As I’ve grown older, I’ve thought about
that many times.
Life is full of imperfect things and
imperfect people. I’m not the best at
hardly anything, and I forget birthdays and anniversaries just like everyone else.
But what I’ve learned over the years is
that learning to accept each other’s
faults and choosing to celebrate each
other’s differences is one of the most
important keys to creating a healthy, growing, and lasting relationship.
And that’s my prayer for you today…that
you will learn to take the good, the bad,
and the ugly parts of your life and lay
them at the feet of God. Because in the
end, He’s the only One who will be able to give you a relationship where a burnt
biscuit isn’t a deal-breaker!
We could extend this to any relationship.
In fact, understanding is the base of any
relationship, be it a husband-wife or
parent-child or friendship!
PART 2

burned biscuit kwa....

is this one a nigerian? lol

nice write up tho..

“Don’t put the key to your happiness in someone else’s
pocket–keep it in your own.”
So, please pass me a biscuit, and yes,
the burned one will do just fine. And
PLEASE pass this along to someone who
has enriched your life–I just did! Be kinder than necessary because everyone you
meet is fighting some kind of battle. “Life
without God is like an unsharpened
pencil–it has no point”
#all thanks to God And karen
