Marsha's Musings: Don't ask God to lead you unless you are willing to move your feet.

In reading "Nourishing Traditions", there are many foods that I need to do this diet. Some really hard to come by, such as raw milk. Others just take some searching to find, such as organic, pasture fed meats and soup bones. In reading this book, I became convinced that this is the way I need to go to maximize my nutrition and heal my tendonitis and help my osteoporosis. But how was I ever going to find the things I needed and how would I afford them? God has been "giving me my daily bread".




Raw milk has been supplied by friends who own a cow.




Pasture fed organic meat and bones was found on the internet with the first order being free of shipping. I also found it sold a the Food Coop 45 minutes drive away.




Cod liver/high vitamin butter oil will be gotten cheaper by ordering with a friend who also uses it.





I've learned to make butter, kefir, and saurkraut. I've learned to make chicken bone broth and nutritious soups from it. My next adventures will be beef bone broth, beet kvass, homemade yogurt, and learning how to soak my flour before making bread and soaking rice before cooking it.





There are so many more things I need to learn. This book is so full of information that I am finding I have to go back and re-read much of what I have read because it's hard to retain it all.





I prayed for God to lead me to what would help my conditions and when I first read "Performance Without Pain" I thought there is no way I could ever do this! Then I read a quote somewhere that said, "Don't pray and ask God to lead you unless you are willing to move your feet". As I have become willing, He is showing me the way.
