Having nailed our old nature to the cross, we keep wistfully returning to the scene of its execution. We begin to fondle it, to caress it, to long for its release, even to take it down again from the cross. We need to learn to leave it there. When some jealous, or proud, or malicious, or impure thought invades our mind we must kick it out at once. It is fatal to begin to examine it and consider whether we are going to give in to it or not. We have declared war on it; we are not going to resume negotiations. We have settled the issue for good; we are not going to re-open it. We have crucified the flesh; we are never going to draw the nails.

INGREDIENTS

8		Juicy Oranges
4	tb	Caster Sugar

INSTRUCTIONS

Wash the oranges thoroughly, halve them and squeeze out all the juice. Put
the juice in a container to one side for the moment.
Remove as much pith as you can from the orange peel and put it into a
saucepan with 2 pints of water and any pulp (not pips!).
Bring to the boil and let it bubble for 20 minutes.
Turn off the heat and leave it to cool.
Strain the contents of the saucepan through a fine sieve, pouring the
orange liquid into a heatproof jug. Add enough boiling water to the liquid
to make it up to two pints.
Mix in the reserved orange juice, stir in the sugar and when it's cool, put
it in the fridge.
Dilute to taste.
