It's all in the marinade!

Posted by Robert Murray at 8:47 AM

A real grill master knows how to prepare a damn good marinade and makes sure to have the meat soaking at least a few hours if not overnight before the actual BBQ takes place. It’s during this soak when the acids, oils and herbs start to work themselves deep inside the meat to ensure every bite off the plate delivers pure joy to our souls.


“... the Bible clearly teaches that we are what we think, that a man will take on an identity to reflect whatever preoccupies his thoughts. Former Notre Dame football coach Lou Holtze once said that we are influenced by the books we read, the people we associate with and the dreams we have. Aptly put, but scripture says it even better: “As water reflects your face, so your mind shows you what kind of person you are” (Proverbs 27:19). Every Man pg.132


Gents, what are you soaking in? Take a moment to look around, to evaluate your thoughts and actions, your friends and environments to become away of what is working its way into the very fiber of your beings.


Phillippians 4:8 offers a recipe for a God marinade:

“Finally brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, what ever is lovely, whatever is admirable - if anything is excellent or praise worthy - think about such things. Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me - put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you.“


Blessings,

Rob
