Snap Pea Crisps

Day 12

One of the librarians brought this unusual snack in to work today. Never in my life had I thought, “Hmm, baked snap peas – now those would be a nice treat.” But this morning I learned that they are quite tasty (and addictive). If you ever come across any, try them. You won’t be disappointed.

I’ve always enjoyed it when people are innovative with food. The other day I read an article in the paper about  companies around here that are making strawberry and blueberry and apple bratwurst.

I mean, I know this is Wisconsin, but blueberry brats? What’ll they think of next?!

Onward.

These words speak for themselves. Enjoy and rest.

Jesus, I am resting, resting,
In the joy of what Thou art;
I am finding out the greatness
Of Thy loving heart.
Thou hast bid me gaze upon Thee,
And Thy beauty fills my soul,
For by Thy transforming power,
Thou hast made me whole.

Refrain

Jesus, I am resting, resting,
In the joy of what Thou art;
I am finding out the greatness
Of Thy loving heart.

O, how great Thy loving kindness,
Vaster, broader than the sea!
O, how marvelous Thy goodness,
Lavished all on me!
Yes, I rest in Thee, Belovèd,
Know what wealth of grace is Thine,
Know Thy certainty of promise,
And have made it mine.

Refrain

Simply trusting Thee, Lord Jesus,
I behold Thee as Thou art,
And Thy love, so pure, so changeless,
Satisfies my heart;
Satisfies its deepest longings,
Meets, supplies its every need,
Compasseth me round with blessings:
Thine is love indeed!

Refrain

Ever lift Thy face upon me
As I work and wait for Thee;
Resting ’neath Thy smile, Lord Jesus,
Earth’s dark shadows flee.
Brightness of my Father’s glory,
Sunshine of my Father’s face,
Keep me ever trusting, resting,
Fill me with Thy grace.

Refrain
