Sisters In Christ Recipe

Shortening- Provides texture. Our fellowship and friendship with our sisters in the Lord can add much depth and texture to our lives. We blend together in unity as part of the body of Christ.

Sugar- Adds sweetness. Our fellowship with our sisters adds such a sweet taste to our lives. If we didn't have sugar in our cookies, we'd sure miss it. The same is with our fellowship with our sisters. We can't leave it out of our lives.

Eggs- Holds ingrediants together. Sisters in the Lord are someone to lean on. We are held together by fellowship with them. We are stonger because of them, their prayers, and their love in the Lord. We have a special bond in Christ.

Vanilla- Adds flavor. Sisters add that flavor we need. They give us that extra sensation. Without friends and fellowship, we become kind of bland.

Flour- Adds substance. We need the substance a sister in the Lord can add. They give us many things by way of mentoring us when we don't even know it. Their shared testimonies and way they live their lives has an impact on us.

Baking Soda- Leavens. Leavening agents in baking soda helps to lighten the dough. Friendship with our sisters in Christ lightens our burdens through their prayer and encouragement.

Salt- Enhances flavor. We know that friendships add flavor and just when we need it, they help improve the tastefulness and quality of our lives. Friends are the type of people that know just what we are going through and are there when we need them.

Semi Sweet Chocolate Chips- The kind of chocolate chips we normally add to our cookies is semi sweet. Our sister friends tell us what they feel and think and that's okay. They can be honest and truthful to us. "Iron sharpeneth iron" Proverbs 27:17

Nuts...Optional- Just a little craziness in a sister friend is great! Sometimes a little zaniness in our friends can be just the ingredient we need.

Conclusion:Friendships take alot of time and effort to bake up but they are worth it when we sense that sweet aroma and special bond that they bring. Friends that have Jesus in common will have lasting relationships, not just here on earth, but will dwell with Christ together throughout eternity.

"A man that hath friends must shew himself friendly; and there is a friend that sticketh closer thean a brother." Proverbs 18:24

A woman has strengths that amaze men.She can handle trouble and carry heavy burdens.She holds happiness, love and opinions.She smiles when she feels like screaming.She sings when she feels like crying, cries when she's happy and laughs when she is afraid.Her love is unconditional!There is only one thing wrong with her:She sometimes forgets what she is worth.....


Thanks so much to my amazing Aunt Melissa for sharing this at our last Ladies Bible Study!! I hope that this is something that I am able to apply to all of my friendships!!

I have recently found a new friend that is simply amazing!! Her name is Karol and though I have only known her a few weeks I feel like she has always been my sister!! She is a ray of sunshine on cloudy days!! I am so thankful to my heavenly Father that he placed her in my life!! He knew that I needed a sister to walk with me through this Journey that we call life! Karol, you are an amazing, beautiful and strong woman of God! Never forget that! You make me want to be a stronger woman of God.
