This Spud's for You!

MARION COUNTY, Fla. -- Pastor Renee Brewster and her husband Bishop Winston Brewster are a very spiritual couple. But the site of their savior in a potato has reinvigorated their faith and their desire to help others.
“That’s Jesus on the Cross. Just looking at it I don't have to convince,” said Renee.

Renee says she had been looking for an excuse to get out of making potato salad. “I was hesitant about making the potato salad because Sister Frankie makes the potato salad at church and I said lord if it’s not for me to make potato salad then send me a sign.”
She thought she got her sign right off the bat. “The first potato I split in half and put it to the side because it looked rotten.
It was her 10-year-old granddaughter who made her give the potato a second look. “My granddaughter said Granny did you see that in the middle? I said what?”
And taking a closer look she saw the cross with Jesus in the middle. “It’s remarkable. Even when I cut the good part off the cross ended up being shaped like a tomb from long ago.”
Pastor Brewster froze the heart of that potato bearing Jesus. The rest was used to make the potato salad served during their weekly rescue mission.
How was that potato salad? “It was good. It was the best you ever made...it was almost as good as Sister Frankie's,” said Bishop Brewster.
The potato did more than feed them physically. It nourished them spiritually and helped reinvigorate their mission.
“The holiday season was there and we didn't know how in the world we were going to be able to bless...but we did and when this occurred it gave us this extra motivation that intuition hey we aren't in this alone,” said Bishop Brewster.
“I just want people to know God is still as real today as he was back then and he can show up anytime he gets ready,” said Pastor Brewster.

Has anyone seen the movie The Holy Mountain?
Jesus is thrown on a huge pile of potatoes.
Then some overweight Roman centurions fashion a bunch of life size Jesus replicas out of mashed potatoes.
I was tripping yelling What The Fuck!? through the entire movie.

   All this time I've loved you And never known your face All this time I've missed you And searched this human race Here is true peace Here my heart knows calm Safe in your soul Bathed in your sighs

Right on, I had to let go of any attempt at understanding the meaning or my head would've exploded.
