God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)
I know the suffering and pain which sickness entails. I admit the misery and wretchedness which it often brings in its train. But I cannot regard it as an unmixed evil. I see in it a wise permission of God. I see in it a useful provision to check the ravages of sin and the devil among men’s souls. If man had never sinned I should have been at a loss to discern the benefit of sickness. But since sin is in the world, I can see that sickness is a good. It is a blessing quite as much as a curse. It is a rough schoolmaster, I grant. But it is a real friend to man’s soul.

INSTRUCTIONS
STREUSEL
Preparation time: 15 minutes Baking time: 20 to 25 minutes
1. Heat oven to 375 degrees. Grease 15- by 10-inch jelly-roll pan. Cream
butter, sugar, egg and vanilla in mixing bowl. Stir in cinnamon and salt.
Add flour, a little at a time. Blend well. Press into pan to 1/4 -inch
thickness with wax paper.
2. Brush beaten egg white over dough. Combine streusel ingredients in food
processor. Process until butter is evenly blended. Sprinkle streusel over
dough. Bake 20 minutes. Cool on wire rack 15 minutes. Cut into 2- by 1 1/2
~inch bars while still warm.
Note: The test kitchen found that a mixture of ground spices such as
cinnamon, allspice, ginger, cardamom and cloves also works nicely in place
of the cinnamon, and for the holiday season, a sprinkling of colored sugar
before baking brightens up these cookies.
