Week Four

As you eat today, do what you can to eat whole, fresh foods, either prepared by you or someone else. Slow down. Be mindful of each bite, each morsel. Taste your food. Take time to imagine the journey your food has been on, from the earth to your belly. Which part of the earth grew it? Who were the people who helped it on its journey? How were they connected to the land (or not)? Delight in this food, the flavor, the costliness and the goodness of it.

Delight in Creation

Walk with God outside today, embracing your membership within creation. Admire the birds, bugs, flowers, and trees you see. Practice seeing creation not as separate from you, but as mosaic pieces of the Creator’s canvas.
