I just wanted to share my favorite way to make green beans! I used to like them ok, but not my favorite until I tasted my mother in law’s green beans! I figured they were complicated but it turns out, they aren’t.

Here are the directions. Brace yourself.

1 can of green beans

3 beef bouillon cubes

Onion salt

Put in a pot on the stove and heat on medium until cubes dissolve and then add onion salt liberally. Done!!

Even my pickiest eater likes them.

If this is too simple for you, please forgive me 🙂 But that’s what my blog is all about! Let me know if you try them and like them!

I’m reading in 1 Samuel and I was struck with a truth today.

God loves us, really loves us, and His way is ALWAYS best.

But He won’t force His way on us.

God warned His people what would happen in they insisted on having a king. How it would ruin things. But they didn’t care.

And so He gave them their way.

This is so scary to me. The thought of God giving me MY way because of my own stubborn heart. Because I want what I want when and how I want it, no matter the repercussions.

He sometimes will do that. And the end isn’t pretty. Of course He does it to bring us back to Himself, but I’d rather choose Him the first time around.

What are you holding onto like that? Demanding your way? Is it worth ruining your life over?

Run from whatever it is and run back to Him. He’s waiting. He’s ready to help put the pieces back together. His ways are higher. He always knows best.
