He smiled upon the cheeseburger

I was fine this morning doing laundry and hanging with Mom and then slam pile, a migraine is full on. The kind that if you roll your eyes to look at something, it just shoots pain. My dear friend was just telling me how she had just learned that our brain has a protective membrane around it and that it is proven that unhealthy eating will destroy it over time. Studies are showing the effects of this and they are including ADHD, Autism, and a long list of medical conditions as symptoms. 
When I have migraines, I’m nearly convinced that I have something terrible a wrong with me and that’s going to make my head explode. Now I can blame it on too many HoHo’s and Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups. 

I was on the way home and was so in so much pain that my eyes wanted to shut and it was 1:30. I thought I need to take meds and need food and my brain membrane is apparently already shot. So what did I do, rolled right into McDonald’s for a dollar plus cheeseburger. 
As I flopped on the wonderfully soft couch, closing my eyes for a tiny bit of relief, and with one hand holding my head and the other stuffing my mouth... I thought “ Jesus is pleased with this hamburger 🍔!”  God knows this has been a rough lonely week, and he cares. And he can use a junky old hamburger to show it.
