Sourdough Origin

“A lot of foods we eat have interesting origins. For example, the bacteria responsible for sourdough bread originally came from rodent feces. Any sourdough you eat has that history, yet it’s all perfectly safe and delicious.”- Rob Dunn, PHD, author of The Man Who Touched His Own Heart, Readers Digest June 2015, p. 68 Even gross things have a purpose. Hardship and life challenges have purpose. It may seem that the difficult situation you are dealing with right now has no purpose, but do not dismiss trials because God can use them to produce something great and useful in our lives.
