 February is the month of Strength.
We associate the disciple Andrew with this power. 

When I decided to start the TwelveSpices.Com blog it was with the intention of bringing a different spiritual power into focus each month. Jesus used food in many of his examples so I decided to used food as a teaching tool as well. For February my first idea was to represent “Strength” with a strong flavor like fresh garlic. I thought about it and decided to take a page from the “Popeye” playbook and settled on spinach instead.

In January it was “Blueberries” and blueberry bread pudding. Think about your power of “Faith” when you think about this tasty and nutritious blue fruit.

Strength shows-up for me in stillness and provides me steadfastness. It is a part of me.

Next month is the Power of Wisdom.
