Do You Want To Know The Truth...???

Truth obviously is found in the Word of God, but it is also found by measuring distances and sizes. 
If I want to tell you the truth about how tall I am, I would measure myself and tell you five feet, ten and a half inches.  If I want to tell you how many ounces are in a cup, we know that the answer is eight ounces are in a cup.  If you want to know how much sugar is in a twelve ounce can of coke, keep reading... 

On the coke can label, it states that it contains thirty-nine grams.  If you empty out thirty-nine packets of sugar that have one gram each, you will see that it ALMOST fills a one-eight cup container.

The truth is, when you drink a soda, its like putting an eight of a cup of sugar in a can with some other crazy ingredients and putting it in our body, which belongs to God! 

Jelly has nearly sixteen grams in one or two tablespoons...
Measure it out with your children with gram packets of sugar and be amazed!
