If there lurks in most modern minds the notion that to desire our own good and earnestly hope for the enjoyment of it is a bad thing, I submit that this notion has crept in from Kant and the Stoics and is no part of the Christian faith. Indeed, if we consider the unblushing promises of reward and the staggering nature of the rewards promised in the Gospels, it would seem that Our Lord finds our desires not too strong, but too weak. We are half-hearted creatures, fooling around with drink and sex and ambition when infinite joy is offered us, like an ignorant child who wants to go on making mud pies in the slum because he cannot imagine what is meant by the offer of a holiday at the sea. We are far too easily pleased.

Idea: For a fruit shortcake, pour batter into a greased 9-inch square pan
and bake for 1 hour and 15 minutes. When cook, cut cake into 2-inch
squares. Slice each square in half, fill with berries and juice, and
replace top half.  Cover with sweetened whipped cream.

batter before baking.
