MOTHER AND CHILD...This totally unique and spiritual item was found by a 12 year old girl.  She was eating "Rold Gold" Honey Mustard flavored tiny twist pretzels, when she noticed the Virgin Mother holding Baby Jesus.  We all had a feeling of warmth and spirituality when holding the pretzel.  The bible references the parables of the mustard seed (Matthew 13:31-32; Mark 4:30-32) , honey is sweet to the soul & healing of the bones (Proverbs 16:24) and the pretzel (John 3:14-21) has a deep spiritual meaning for LENT.  We believe the Lord works his magic and this is evident in this item!   Pretzel 1 inch wide by 2 inches tall.

PRETZEL PRAYER

Bless this special Lenten bread, O God. May its folded arms remind us of your love which folds around us. Let this little bread help us to especially remember your son, Jesus, during Lent. Guide us, O God, into his loving ways each day. Amen

This has become much of a surprise to us! We put the reserve price high because we didn't think we could sell a pretzel for $1000. My daughter is only 12 and when the question was asked what do you want to do with the money - she thought of her wish for so many years of having a horse. We though... have discussed this as a family (there is only 3 of us) and decided the best thing is to support our local church, also a church we were at for 9 years before and we will seek guidance from our local pastor for other charities. This has been quite a learning experience. It started out on a Sunday...a mother and daughter researching scripture and enjoying our afternoon together. Then the decision of sharing with everyone was answered by displaying on eBay. Whether this was a good decision will be given on Wednesday. I do want may daughter to have her dream of owning a horse, but the Lord does work his magic and guiding us in a different path.
