Stormy nights

I remember it so well, growing up in Nelspruit we had many storms.  When the thunder got loud it was really scary and often in the evenings the power would go out.  Well mom always knew how to make those scary nights fun, because out would come the gas cooker and it would be pancake night.....and who ever eats pancake without cinnamon sugar?  Well cinnamon is not only good for desert.

Wow, once again I am blown away by the long list of conditions that cinnamon can help to treat:  Blood sugar control; Yeast infections; Stomach bugs - anti-bacterial; Irritable bowl syndrome; Cancer preventor; Bone health; Food preservative; Alertness, memory & cognitive development; Weight loss; Massage therapy
Toe nail fungus; Lowers cholesterol; Tooth decay & gum disease; Insect repellent; Colds, sore throats & cough; Alzheimer's disease; PMS; Reduces depression - mood enhancer and Virus fighter. 

Mood enhancer.....Lol!  Maybe that's why it works so well with desert then as I've never been happier than after a pancake or good apple pie!  How does the Word of God work as a mood enhancer?  Well, when we read about God's love for us in John 3:16 and the price He was willing to pay for our salvation, then that sure should make us not only feel loved but feel good as well. 

When we sing praise songs that bring to remembrance the Word of God we are also reminded of God's goodness!  If you've been feeling moody or grumpy lately, why not focus on some praise songs and lift your voice towards heaven!  I know God will inhabit your praises and lift your heart and mood!
