Psalms 128:2 "For
thou shalt eat the labour of thine hands: happy shalt thou be, and it shall be
well with thee."
When I was a kid the rule
in our house was that no baked goods or other dish destined for a potluck or other
shared celebration left the house without leaving its twin behind. That way we
didn’t have to smell all the great smells in vain.
We knew that we would be
able to eat the labor of our hands whether we were going to the gathering or
not. When we’re dieting, we might be in the situation where we are making
something we think we shouldn’t eat.
But if we control our
portions, we should be able to eat a tiny piece. No one should be barred from
eating the labor of their own hands.
