Some Good Men That Don't Mind Burnt Biscuits

Burned biscuits

When I was a kid, my mom liked to make breakfast food for dinner every
now and then. And I remember one night in particular when she had
made breakfast after a long, hard day at work.
On that evening so long ago, my mom placed a plate of eggs, sausage
and extremely burned biscuits in front of my dad. I remember waiting to
see if anyone noticed! Yet all my dad did was reach for his biscuit, smile at
my mom and ask me how my day was at school.. I don't remember what I told him that night, but I do remember watching him smear butter and jelly on
that biscuit and eat every bite!
When I got up from the table that evening, I remember hearing my mom
apologize to my dad for burning the biscuits. And I'll never forget
what he said: "Honey, I love burned biscuits."
Later that night, I went to kiss Daddy good night and I asked him if he
really liked his biscuits burned. He wrapped me in his arms and
said, "Your Momma put in a hard day at work today and she's real tired.
And besides - a little burnt biscuit never hurt anyone!" Life is full of imperfect things....and imperfect people. I'm not
the best at hardly anything, and I forget birthdays and anniversaries
just like everyone else. But what I've learned over the years is that
learning to accept each other's faults - and choosing to celebrate
each others differences - is one of the most important keys to creating a healthy, growing, and lasting relationship.
And that's my prayer for you today. That you will learn to take the good,
the bad, and the ugly parts of your life and lay them at the feet of
God. Because in the end, He's the only One who will be able to give you a relationship where a burnt biscuit isn't a deal-breaker!
We could extend this to any relationship. In fact, understanding is the
base of any relationship, be it a husband-wife or parent-child or
friendship!"Don't put the key to your happiness in someone else's pocket - keep it
in your own."
God Bless You..... Now, and Always.... So Please pass me a biscuit, and yes, the burnt one will do just fine.
