We Love God!

God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)

The illuminist seeks guidance from God by getting a series of impressions, which he believes come as God directly impacts his spirit. The illuminist is often wary of the mind and using his or her reason. Certainly we need to be cautious lest we fall into the error of blindly trusting bare unaided reason. The illuminist, though, often goes so far as to reject any hope that reason can be useful. “This doesn’t come from me,” he will say, “it comes from God.”

God could reject our worship for a number of reasons. He specifically condemns acts of worship associated with idolatry, unbelief, disobedience, and evil motives (Jeremiah 13:10; Exodus 30:9; 32:22-27; Jeremiah 7:21-26). Rehearsing this list makes me aware that our offerings of worship will never please God on their own. Try as hard as we can, our hearts and worship will always be tainted in God’s sight. The ultimate factor of acceptable worship is faith in and union with Jesus Christ. Our spiritual sacrifices are “acceptable to God through Jesus Christ” (1 Peter 2:5). It is His sinless offering of worship that cleanses and perfects ours.

Saute chopped onions until limp and translucent. Add chopped garlic and
saute for another minute. Add stock. Bring to a full boil, and then down to
simmer.
Open can of corn, drain, and pour into soup pot. Open can of tomatoes and
chop them coarsely (I usually use a kitchen scissors and just cut them in
the can.). Pour tomatoes with juice into soup pot.
Toast chiles in a dry frying pan for about 1 minute--you can smell when
they're done. Slit chiles and remove seeds for extra "mildness", otherwise
just crush them into bits and put in soup.
Core, seed, and trim ribs of bell pepper. Cut into bite-sized pieces and
reserve. Cut zucchini in half, lengthwise, and cut each half into "half
moons."
5 minutes before serving, put bell pepper and zucchini into soup and heat.
