delicious. 

Looking behind me to ensure the way was clear and that The Gracious
Mistress of the Parsonage had not come home early, I set out to fix my 
favorite sandwich. 

Don't get me wrong here; turkey is a wonderful sandwich. But it doesn't
compete with this P&J sandwich I was about to indulge in. 

I don't know who invented peanut butter, but they have greatly served
humanity. Then, adding jelly to peanut butter sandwiches is another 
brilliant accomplishment. 

Quickly, I put together my P&J sandwich, got a fresh cup of coffee, and
then went to the kitchen table to celebrate my lunch. After finishing 
that sandwich, I was very much tempted to go for sandwich number two. 
What would be wrong with that? 

If The Gracious Mistress of the Parsonage knows what I had for lunch,
how would I explain it to her? Keeping it a secret is my number one 
agenda. 

Munching on my P&J sandwich, I remembered what David said. "Delight
thyself also in the LORD; and he shall give thee the desires of thine 
heart" (Psalm 37:4). 

I love food, but my greatest joy is in the Lord. As I focus on Him in my
daily activities, I begin to understand the important desires of my 
heart. It's amazing how God surprised me with something that really 
made my life happy. The finer things in life aren't everything. 
Sometimes it's the simple things that make me truly happy.
