“Growth in grace” pleases God. It may seem a wonderful thing, no doubt, that anything done by such creatures as we are can give pleasure to the Most High God. But so it is. The Scripture speaks of walking so as to “please God.” The Scripture says there are sacrifices with which “God is well-pleased.” (1 Thes. 4:1; Heb. 13:16.) The husbandman loves to see the plants on which he has bestowed labor flourishing and bearing fruit. It cannot but disappoint and grieve him to see them stunted and standing still. Now what does our Lord Himself say? “I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman.” - “Herein is my Father glorified, that you bear much fruit; so shall ye be my disciples.” (John 15:1, 8.) The Lord takes pleasure in all His people - but specially in those that grow.

INSTRUCTIONS

Someone asked a while back about a recipe on a lasagne box that called for
uncooked noodles. I have copied this recipe off the Skinner Lasagne box. It
is the only lasagne recipe I use. It is very easy and you can of course
substitute homemade sauce if you like. I had always heard people say how
hard it is to make lasagne. I never knew what the fuss was until I read
some other recipes.
Heat oven to 350 degrees F. In 3-quart saucepan, brown meat; drain. Add
spaghetti sauce and water; simmer about 10 minutes. In bowl, stir together
ricotta, one-half mozzarella cheese, parmesan cheese, eggs, parsley, salt
and pepper. Pour about 1 cup sauce on bottom of 13x9-inch baking dish.
Arrange 3 UNCOOKED pasta pieces lengthwise over sauce; cover with about 1
cup sauce. Spread one-half cheese filling over sauce. Repeat layers of
lasagne, sauce and cheese filling. Top with layer of lasagne and remaining
sauce; sprinkle with remaining mozzarella cheese. Cover with foil. Bake 45
minutes. Remove foil; bake additional 15 minutes. Let stand 10 minutes
before cutting. 10 to 12 servings. Alternate Method: Recipe can be prepared
with COOKED lasagne noodles following same instructions. OMIT ADDITION OF
1-1/2 CUPS WATER TO SPAGHETTI SAUCE.
