We Love God!

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

On the surface, love for enemies sounds like self-punishment or foolishness. It goes in the face of popular counsel that tells you to jettison people who damage your self-esteem. But if God says it, it must be good. There is always a blessing in obedience. The blessing might not be reconciliation or repentance by the enemy. Instead, it may be the privilege of not being controlled by that enemy. Or it might simply be the joy of becoming more like Jesus. Whatever it may be, there is always a blessing in obedience.
Edward Welch

The bottom line is that we are all hardwired to reject the complete and freely given righteousness of God in a desire to establish our own righteousness (Rom. 10:3). Like Adam and Eve, we search frantically for fig leaves to cover our spiritual nakedness. We think we need to do stuff or rest on our past spiritual achievements to receive God’s love. Deceived by our pride and our feelings, we rob glory from Jesus Christ and seek to find a false sense of peace in our own adequacy.

Squash
2 tb Marmalade
Water
Juice of 1 orange

INSTRUCTIONS

Not so much sweet an sour as sweet and peppery. Cut the squash into wedges
and remove the skin. Place the wedges in an ovenproof dish and dab with
butter. Thin down two tablespoons of marmalade with water to form a thin
sauce. Add the juice of an orange and a lemon and pour over the squash.
Scatter over one or two teaspoons of coarsely crushed peppercorns and bake
until soft (about 30 to 45 minutes), topping up with extra water if the
sauce dries up.
