~Good Food

~So, on the event of OREO cookie being 100 years old today.  I say, what the crap!!!  See, my body cannot properly digest a protein found in wheat and other things called gluten. So, I should not eat items that contain WHEAT.  In case you didn't know, wheat is in about everything in the standard western diet!!! And yes, sad to say....OREOs.;c(  I am grieving today, not just for these amazing crunchy sweet chocolaty discs of heaven, but also for the GIRL SCOUT COOKIES which I should also not consume.
This past weekend I spent allot of time snacking on what I should not have.  I admit it, I am powerless sometimes against what I refer to as 'the Devel' Gluten!! I know exactly what will transpire 6 to 12 hours after consuming said food....still, I eat it!!  What is wrong with me.?
Well, I have a theory.  Bear with me kids, this may get a bit complicated.
I believe that God created us perfectly, in his image. Right down to the lining of my intestines and my digestion process.  I also believe that God's favorite angel not only fell from heaven but he reeks havoc on those of us walking on this earth.  He(that bad guy) want to kill,steal,and destroy all the beauty of God's creation.  Here's where the Gluten comes in.  I don't believe that because my body will not digest Gluten that I am somehow disobedient,tainted,or not walking close enough to the Lord.  On the contrary . I see Gluten as an arrow directed at me form the enemy that I have to resist and put on the armour of God to defend myself form.  Now, some of you who have read this far are thinking I have lost my marbles...but I assure you I am full of marbles at this moment!!  After spending time in thought about my health, I have come to two conclusions.  One, i am the decision maker here.  God gives us free will to choose the path we go.  And second, the apple in the garden was most certainly made of a Gluten based protein.  Why else was it off limits to Adam and Eve???? Just a thought..

  2. Okay missy :-)

    Thought I should weigh in on this (and let ya know I DO read your stuff!). Whilst I don't believe in Satan the same way as a Christian does, something my Catholic husband said about it struck me. He said he felt Heaven was turning to G-d, Hell was turning away from G-d. How this belief fits in with my own thoughts is I wonder in this modern world that feels it doesn't need nature...I wonder if things like your gluten intolerance is actually G-d in the form of nature trying to lead us back into a more real and natural way of living. After all, intolerances like this never seem to be in cultures that live in the cycle of nature (like the Amish for one). And maybe it's the turning our backs on all of G-d's beauty is the turning towards Hell.


    Maybe I'm an idiot but that's how it feels, to me. :-)
