We Love God!

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

For every Christian in every culture, repentance is necessary. This doesn’t mean that when people become Christians, they suddenly become perfect and never have any struggles with sin again. But this does mean that when we become followers of Jesus, we make a decided break with an old way of living and take a decisive turn to a new life. We literally die to our sin and to ourselves – our self-centeredness, self-consumption, self-righteousness, self-indulgence, self-effort, and self-exaltation. In the words of Paul, we “have been crucified with Christ and [we] no longer live, but Christ lives in [us].”
David Platt

I do implore you, do not look upon the sacrifice of Christ as an act of mere vengeance on the Father’s part. Never imagine, oh! never indulge the idea, that Jesus died to make the Father complacent towards us. Oh, no, dear friends: Jesus’ death is the effect of overwhelming and infinite love on the Father’s part; and every blow which wounds, every infliction which occasions sorrow, and every pang which rends his heart, speaks of the Father’s love as much as the joy, the everlasting triumph, which now surrounds His head.
C.H. Spurgeon

    INGREDIENTS

    2 lg Eggplants
    1 tb Salt
    1 tb Olive oil
    1 Juice of lemon
    4 tb Freshly chopped mint
    1 ts Ground cumin
    1 Garlic clove, crushed
    Black pepper
    5 oz Yogurt
    4 tb Freshly chopped mint
    1/2 ts Ground cumin

    INSTRUCTIONS

    Cut eggplants into 1 cm thick slices & layer them in a colander with the
salt.  Let them drain for 30 minutes. Wash them under cold water & dry them
on paper towels. Beat together oil, lemon juice, mint, cumin, garlic &
pepper.  Beat together, separately, the yogurt, mint & cumin.
Heat the grill to high.  Lay the eggplant slices on the hot rack & brush
them with half the lemon mixture. Grill them until they begin to brown.
This will take about 2 minutes. Turn over, brush with the rest of the lemon
mixture & brown.
Serve grilled eggplants hot with the sauce separately as an appetizer. Or
place the eggplant on a large platter & spoon the sauce over the top &
serve as a vegetable accompaniment for middle eastern dishes.
