Tortillas

Last week I made tortillas for bean burritos for lunch.  As I was making them I got to thinking as one often does as they are cooking.  

So there I was rolling out tortillas and this is what I began to think about.  We are like a tortilla, spiritually that is.  God is the Maker that made us.  Our life is the filling.  What we put in makes us what we are.  Just like we chose which ingredients we add to our burrito, we get to chose which ingredients we are going to add to our spiritual burrito.  Here are some ingredients that are good to use. 
  • Bible study 
  • Prayer time
  • Fellowship with other Christians
  • Quality time with family
There are some ingredients that one should be careful of and use with much thought.  They are movies, music and books that have non Christian ideals in them and time spent with friends that may not be the best examples.  I'm sure we can all think of things that we might not want very much of (or any) in our spiritual burrito.

As we continue to live our lives for God, let us remember the things that we are putting daily into our burrito.  Check often and make sure they are what we really want to add.
