THE RIGHT INGREDIENT

It is very important to have the right ingredient to make the thing you desire. 

Ingredients are the substances you use to combine with one another when you are preparing to make a particular thing that you desire.

For example, if you desire some banana bread, you must have bananas as an ingredient to achieve what you want. Or if you are desiring an apple pie, then it certainly stands to reason that you will definitely need apples as an ingredient.

God knew the importance of having the right ingredient when he was making things back in the beginning of everything. 

God desired light, so he made light. I wonder if you or I desired to make light what ingredient would we have chosen to use? God chose darkness as his ingredient to make light. Hmm. I find that to be very interesting. Furthermore, the light that he created wasn’t even the sun. He didn’t make the sun until 3 days later.

To make the plants, trees and flowers he used the soil of the earth as an ingredient. That's probably something that we might have thought of as well. But, to make fish, sharks and whales, he used water from the ocean. I certainly didn't see that one coming. 

One of his greatest creations was man. The ingredient he chose to make from was spirit. God took his spirit and his son’s spirit and blew them into the soul of man. This was done to forge a lasting relationship between them. 

That got me to thinking about the ingredients that I’ve chosen to use in my past relationships. I’ve used sight, smell, feelings, touch, knowledge, perception, the word of others, but I never used spirit to build a lasting relationship. 

Again, it is very important to have the right ingredient to make the thing you desire. 

This is a Thompson Truth!
