Raised in the house by a single mother who had to put in those hours to take care of the home. Zadora at the age of 10 had to get in that kitchen to cook for the family.  Her passion comes from being a mother, and now a wife, seeing the look on her family's faces and other people's faces when that fork enters their mouths. That just brings joy to her heart.. Sadora started her catering business because she wanted people to enjoy real food.. home-cooked food, that makes them feel as if they were at Grandma's... Sadora hopes one day her food will enter the mouths of millions of people and they love the comfort and taste of the food.  DISHES:   Loaded Potatoes Chicken; Steak and Shrimp    DIVA’S TABLE TOPIC: Dating in the Faith - Dating "your" way vs. God's way WORD OF THE DAY:  Quiddity 1.  DEFINITION: Quiddity 1. The essence of something or someone; a distinctive feature  STATS:  www.boundless.org Basically, we can make three general statements about modern dating vs. biblical dating in terms of their respective philosophies:  Modern dating seems to be about “finding” the right person for me biblical dating is more about “being” the right person to serve my future spouse’s needs and be a God-glorifying husband or wife. (Reference:Michael Lawrence has written on this site, “Stop Test-Driving Your Girlfriend“);  In modern dating, intimacy precedes commitment. In biblical dating, commitment precedes intimacy. The modern dating approach tells us that the way to figure out whether I want to marry someone is to act like we are married. If we like it, we make it official. If we don’t, then we go through something emotionally — and probably physically — like a divorce. In biblical dating, Scripture guides us as to how to find a mate and marry, and the Bible teaches, among other things, that we should act in such a way so as not to imply a marriage-level commitment until that commitment exists before the Lord.  SCRIPTURE:  Timothy 2:2222 So flee youthful passions and pursue righteousness, faith, love, and peace, along with those who call on the Lord from a pure heart.  #Dating #Faith #DatingInFaith #NadivaShow
