As Good As Eggs


You lay blue plates upon the table

Chipped, they are still good for us

and for friends who are never company

Eggs like steaming, golden clouds

fill the room with goodness

Such joy and nourishment from broken things

Our eyes meet over Grace and know

we are as good as eggs.

...You shall eat in plenty and be satisfied, and praise the name of the Lord your God, who has dealt wondrously with you... Joel 2:25-26

  1. I know just what you mean. God makes glory come from what anyone else would toss away. I printed this off to share with some fellow omelet lovers.

    1. Love that looks so simple, so every day, so basic is the deepest and most wonderful kind. Thanks, Kim.
