Expressing Peace. Supper. 47.

Supper

Supper

Supper brings its own special joy. And peace.

The joy of chopping, sauteing, seasoning, stirring, tasting, adjusting.

The warmth rising from the stove.

The sweet smells of chicken from the oven, scallions and pecans in the skillet, chopped peach on the cutting board.

The satisfaction of putting it all together, seeing the ingredients blend and mix and share their savoriness.

The anticipation of dishing it out, carrying servings to the table, lifting our plates as we say, “Thank you, GOD!”

Peace showers over supper. From the first look at what’s in the fridge to the last bite from the plate.

Peace accompanies each taste, each easing of the day behind, each smile at whatever tastes good.

Peace follows the meal, clearing the table, rinsing the plates, scouring the pan and skillet.

Supper brings Peace. And Joy.

Feast Giver,
the evening meal brings peace to end our day
and Peace to make us glad.
The preparation of our supper
gives us peace from heavy thought
and Peace for thanks that we have food.
The blending of the spinach, peach, and scallion
gives us peace to know the harmony of flavors
and Peace reminding us we are the marriage
of body, mind, and spirit.
The dishing food onto our plates
gives us peace that what we’ve made we’ll now enjoy
and Peace reflecting on your creating us and serving us this life.
We bless our supper, GOD.
We bless the Peace it lets us know.
And so it is.
Amen. Amen.

Enjoy Peace. Enjoy Supper.
