Want A Snack?

It’s amazing that anywhere you go around the world, people love to snack. They are served either hot or cold, on skewers, in plastic containers, or wrapped in banana leaf. Some are so aesthetically pleasing to the eye that you don’t feel like eating it.
Yet, there are some snacks so exotic they really belong in a glass display in a entomologist’s library.


In some poorer countries like Ghana, where children have not tasted cookies or candies, they snack on bananas.


Growing up in a household of eight, I remember always coming home to find snack food on the table. Mom somehow always found the energy and time to make all kinds of snacks for the family. The only problem was, as kids, we preferred snacks over real food.





Sometimes Christians are the same way, we prefer tidbits to the Word; we rather read “Chicken Soup for the Soul” than do serious Bible study to strengthen the soul.




“The true bread of God is the one who comes down from heaven and gives life to the world.” John 6:33
