Prior to spending the majority of my day de-cluttering, scrubbing with a toothbrush, and disinfecting every square inch of the bathroom, I made a quick protein packed breakfast to get me going.
Breakfast Flatbread
1 flatbread
butter
1/2c scrambled eggs
2 pieces of bacon (and any other toppings your heart desires)
and 1/3c of shredded cheese
Preheat your oven to 400.
While your oven is heating, quickly scramble two eggs.
Lay your flatbread on to your baking sheet. I use a tasty multi-grain version.
Lightly spread butter over the flatbread.
Evenly sprinkle the eggs over the flatbread.
I use low sodium, pre-cooked bacon. I simply sliced it and sprinkled it on top of the eggs.
Evenly scatter the cheese over your toppings.
Bake 10-15 minutes or until your cheese is completely melted. Keep an eye on it. The flatbread will crisp pretty quickly.
Enjoy!
After bending over backwards (almost literally) to complete the bathroom before the sun went down, I took a quick breather outside. The air was cool and thick clouds draped the mountains. I glanced up at the two large trees in our front yard and was pleased with what I saw. The top halves of both trees were full of small sparrows. Their sweet chirps were almost melodic against the rustling of the leaves. This moment in time became one of reflection. I continue to battle anxiety and in that still, peaceful moment, I was reminded of God's grace and love for me. As the autumn breeze whisked my hair about my face, I got a sense of God's immediate presence. I was reminded of His love for me. I was reminded that while I do not warrant His goodness, grace and mercy, He provides all in abundance. While I will never be worthy of all the blessings He showers over me, He finds true worth in me.
So don't be afraid; you are more valuable to God than a whole flock of sparrows. Luke 12:7b
Can all your worries add a single moment to your life? And if worry can't accomplish a little thing like that, what's the use of worrying over bigger things? "Look at the lilies and how they grow. They don't work or make their clothing, yet Solomon in all his glory was not dressed as beautifully as they are. And if God cares so wonderfully for flowers that are here today and thrown into the fire tomorrow, he will certainly care for you. Why do you have so little faith? "And don't be concerned about what to eat and what to drink. Don't worry about such things. These things dominate the thoughts of unbelievers all over the world, but your Father already knows your needs. Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, and he will give you everything you need. So don't be afraid, little flock. For it gives your Father great happiness to give you the Kingdom.
Luke 12:24-32
As I continue to work through my daily battles, I am grateful for the promises that God has so specifically given in His word.
