Freshwater: January 2020

Freshwater

Located in the wilds of Wyoming, the name Freshwater was chosen as a Western analogy to Christ. Just as He is the Living Water, and we must have Him to have eternal life, any desert dweller knows the importance of fresh water to life, both for self, and the nourishment of crops or livestock. By taking nourishment in God and His word, we strengthen our own relationship with Him, our faith, and the quality and abundance of our fruitfulness.

Our keystone verse is from Jeremiah, Chapter 17, Verse 8: "For he shall be as a tree planted by the waters, and that spreadeth out her roots by the river, and shall not see whenSave heat cometh, but her leaf shall be green; and shall not be careful in the year of drought, neither shall cease from yielding fruit."

The fruit that we speak of is mentioned in Galatians 5:22
"²²But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, ²³Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law."

And the heat could be anything we experience that might test our faith in God; trials and tribulations, relationships, anything that focuses our love and attention anywhere but on Him...

Smiley 360 Mission BiPro Bold Protein

I was recently assigned to review BiPro Bold Protein powder for a Smiley360 Mission. This is good stuff. The first thing I did was stir it into my morning coffee, because that is the true test of any protein powder worth it's salt. No clumps, no lumps, it mixed in easily and tasted great. There is no chalky texture or aftertaste with this product.

There were some recipe cards included in the sample box, but I tried my own because some of them had flour. It bakes well, mixes well, I really don't see any downside to the product I tried.

Pricewise it's pretty comparative to other quality protein powders I have found.
