A New Life Choice

It seems the more information We learn and ponder on requires us to make some kind of life choice. Do we ignore the information?.....find more research to document the information?...ignore it all together after all we are very busy people and do not have time to dwell on it......Or make a life choice that brings about change. Either way a choice is made, to do something or nothing and all choices have consequences.
After watching "Forks Over Knives", each of our family units have decided to make a change toward eating more plant based foods. This is a huge change and mind shift for some of us so we are working together to encourage and support each other.
In our next several posts we will be sharing new recipes and cookbooks, more information on documented studies, and our struggles and triumphs. Our combined households include ages 22 months to 83, a grand total of 19 life forces. This will definitely be an adventure.

Life Change

Eating differently than others in not a new concept for our family. Through the years we have made adjustments and exclusions according to the allergies and illnesses that have roamed through our household.  From the "cave man diet" to eating to rebuild immune systems, changes have been implemented. Whatever it took to be healthy and well we did. Then when the crisis was past we would gradually slip back in to "social" eating patterns. It seems to be an ever evolving process with a continual influx of new information and studies. The information in "Forks over Knives" presents one of those life changing moments. Whatever we do, it will not be the same as what we "are" doing. We will eat a more plant based diet.

Challenge #1. What do you fix for supper when 95 percent of your recipes are based around animal protein.

Challenge #2. Having to explain yourself and eating lifestyle to a "bizillion" people one at a time.

Raising up the Next Generation of Faithfulness

Being blessed with six boys and three girls born into our family has given us a wonderful opportunity to raise more men and women of God. Our continual vigilance in the task of raising them to be godly sons, brothers, husbands. fathers and daughters, sisters, wives. and mothers is paramount. Through God's grace they will all be His. So let us stand strongly united together, encouraging one another to remain faithful to the task. So their hearts will always be moldable in His hands.
