Lentil Soup Recipe

Lentil Soup
By The Dempster Family

2 Tbsp. Olive Oil
1 Onion
About 1 Tbsp. Garlic
3/4 cup Lentils (I used Green Lentils)
1/2 cup uncooked Brown Rice
2 3/4 cup Organic Broth (I used Chicken Broth)
2 tsp. dried Basil
1 tsp. dried Oregano
1 tsp. dried Thyme
1 tsp. Sea Salt
1/4 - 1/2 tsp. Black Pepper

Saute the onion and garlic in the olive oil. Then throw in the lentils and uncooked brown rice. Stir well. Add the broth and spices. Bring to a boil. Cover and simmer for 45 min., adding extra water if needed. So that there will be some liquid on the bottom. Serve hot. Enjoy!

Until later,

God always desires for us to know more of who He is and to be more like Him. There are several verses in the bible that express this desire of God's heart. In knowing these few things, I concluded that we need to imitate the attributes of God that scripture specifically calls us to follow in. There are twelve attributes that I came up with. The first attribute was Holiness. "...but as He who called you is holy, you also be holy in all your conduct, since it is written, You shall be holy, for I am holy." 1 Peter 1:15-16 "...You shall be holy, for I the Lord your God am holy." Leviticus 19:2b Having Mercy or being Merciful . " Be merciful, even as your Father is merciful." Luke 6:36 Being Compassionate or having a Compassionate heart. ...
