Devotional and Meditation Thoughts

   The bread didn't care what she was thinking and just kept on cooking. The smell was terrific, but it just wasn't right. What is her friends did not like this loaf as well as the last loaf? Her bread was almost done, but her imagination was just beginning to cook. One of her friends was an expert in food. She was convinced he would be embarrassed and eat her bread just to be nice. She couldn't stand the thought of nice eating.
   Her bread had never taken longer to cook. She was wishing she had never had such a silly idea. Finally, the deed was done. It looked like bread! It smelled like bread! It tasted like bread! But her imagination convinced her that it was not her bread. Besides, the friends would never know about this imperfect bread.
   Her bread never left home that morning. A good-looking, good smelling, good-tasting loaf of hot bread ended up on a lonely shelf.
   Tuesday was bread day without bread!
   We knew there was nothing wrong with her bread, because later she repented and we enjoyed her bread. We would not have known about her imperfect bread...if she had not confessed.
