This Dip can serve two to four people. Use a variety of fruit. Try Strawberries, Apples, Bananas, Pineapple, or your favorite fruit. |
|
|
| ** Hint |
|
|
| When your bananas start to get too ripe put them in the freezer with the skins on. Frozen bananas get a dark brown skin but when pealed they are still white and can be used in your favorite recipe, milkshake, or baking. I run them under cold water and peal. |

| Food for Thought ..... |
|
|
| Matthew 4:4 It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedith out of the mouth of God. |
|
|
| Matthew 16:26 For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? |
|
|
| What good is living a healthy and longer life, if we |
|
|
| neglect our choice for eternal life? |
|
|
|
God loves you. John 3:16. |
|
|
| Sin separates us from God. Romans 3:23, Rom 6:23. |
|
|
| Jesus Christ died in your place. Romans 5:8 |
|
|
| Jesus wants us to turn from our sin. (Repent) Acts 3:19 |
|
|
| Jesus showed us we could have eternal life by raising |
|
|
|
from the dead. 1 Corinthians 15: 3-4 |
|
|
| Jesus is the only way. Acts 4:12, John 14:6 |
|
|
|
You cannot earn your own way it's a gift. Ephesians 2:8-9 |
|
|
| Confess these things to God. Rom 10: 9-10 |
|
| Jesus wants you to live forever with him. John 10:10. John 14:3. |
|
|
| Becoming a Christian is the most important decision |
|
|
|
Anyone can ever make. If you would like to accept |
|
|
| Jesus as your personal Lord and Savior. Just ask. If |
|
|
| you don't know what to say you may use the prayer below |
|
|
| But you must mean it with your heart. |
|
|
|
Dear God: I know I have sinned and that my sin separates mefrom you. I am sorry for my sin. Please forgive me. I believe Jesus died on the cross for my sin and rose from the dead. |
|
|
|
Jesus come into my life and be my Savior and Lord. In Jesus name, |
|
|
| Amen |
|
|
| If you prayed this prayer. Send me a note with your name and address. I would like to send you a new believer's pack to help you with your new life. |
