Why spend your money on food that does not give you strength? Why pay for food that does you no good? Listen to me and you will eat what is good. You will enjoy the finest food. -Isaiah 55:2(NLT)
EAT HEALTHY FOOD
A poem and essay by ILMA
What kinds of food do you feed your body?
Do they nourish you and make you healthy?
Why spend on food that doesn’t do you good?
Why compromise your health by eating junk food?
As our bodies need good nourishment
So does our spirits need replenishment
Listen to Scriptures, they bring you wholeness
Eat food that brings you strength and fullness.

When I was growing up, everyone ate simple food. There were processed or instant foods. We didn’t have big burger chain stores that we dine in. Our parents made sure we had about three basic meals a day at almost exactly the same time. We followed routine and most families cook their own meals. In my country of origin, there were lots of wet market, where we buy newly caught fish and fresh meat and vegetables. Today, the food industry has manipulated our food preferences and changed the way we eat. We now live in a fast paced world where we don’t take time to plan our meals. The bible tells us to feed on God’s word for our spirits to grow and be nourished. Eat healthy food.
PRAYER
Show me whenever I choose junk food Lord.
REFLECTION
What kinds of food do you eat? Are they nourishing or destroying you?
