Then the Lord answered me and said, Write the vision and make it plain on tablets, that he may run who reads it. For the vision is yet for an appointed time; But at the end it will speak, and it will not lie. Though it tarries, wait for it; Because it will surely come, it will not tarry.
Habakkuk 2:2-3
The Bible verse echoed through the dining room only moments before Carol Jean Ellis welcomed the community  into her new restaurant. Working on a vision Ellis says was provided to her by God, it only seemed right to name her new business endeavor, Taste A Vision.
Not only is Yazoo’s newest business a restaurant, but Ellis uses her eatery as a place to share the Gospel and bring others closer to the Lord. Waiting and watching, she is there for anyone who simply wants to hear the Good News.
