"God, when we don't have food to suit our taste, then please give us the taste to suit our food" (Eugene Morse, author of Exodus to a Hidden Valley). One of the Morse families main sources of food was atu pith. It required processing and didn't taste good but it was nutritious. This was the Morse family prayer for it.
The Morse family were missionaries in north Burma when the Communists took over the government. They were given expulsion orders. The family and about 2,000 Lisu tribal people made a westward trek to the Indian border, but were not allowed in, so, they made their home in a valley in the unsurveyed border area between India and Burma. It is an inspiring story that was published by Readers Digest in 1974. It is a story about God's provision, the value of freedom and simple Christian faith. If you can find the book, give it a read! It will increase your faith! I just finished it.
Grace&Peace,
Tom
