We Love God!

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

When [the pastor] loses his sense of servanthood, at that same time he loses his spiritual power and usefulness. When he exalts himself and begins to work in his own human power and according to his own plans, he competes with God and forfeits his spiritual power. To lose dependence is to lose everything, because everything that is of any value in our lives, including power for effective service, comes only from the Lord. Among the greatest dangers to the ministry, and to all faithful Christian living, are things that in the world’s eyes are of supreme value - personal ambition, prestige, recognition, honor, reputation, and success.
John MacArthur

Making threatening statements, rude or hurtful remarks. 5. Yelling for them to come to you when it not an emergency. 6. Grumbling about decisions they make. 7. Being ungrateful for something they do for you or give you. 8. Complaining about what they have given you to eat. 9. Talking back. 10. Objecting, mocking, correcting, questioning, or giving unasked-for explanations are all signs of disrespect. 11. Speaking in an irreverent way or in anger. 12.

INSTRUCTIONS

* Note: See the "Fish Stock" and "Green Rice" recipes which are included in
this collection.
In small saucepan combine fish stock and raisins. Bring to a boil, reduce
to a simmer and cook, uncovered, until the raisins are plump and light gold
in color, about 20 to 25 minutes. Transfer to a medium bowl and set aside.
In a large skillet heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil over high heat.
Saute the onion 3 to 5 minutes until translucent and limp. Add garlic and
saute about 30 seconds. Stir in tomatoes with 1 teaspoon salt and 3/4
teaspoon pepper and cook 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from pan and set aside. In
same skillet saute peppers in four batches, adding 2 tablespoons of oil for
each batch. The peppers should remain crisp and colorful, like a stir-fry.
Transfer each finished batch to a platter to cool. Then transfer to the
bowl with raisins and stock. Add the tomato mixture (cooked vegetables can
be refrigerated overnight if desired.) In same skillet, heat the remaining
2 tablespoons oil over high heat until almost smoking. Sprinkle the cleaned
octopus with salt and pepper. Saute octopus, stirring constantly, about 2
minutes. Add the cooked vegetable mixture, cilantro, lime juice and 1/4
teaspoon each of salt and pepper. Stir and toss well to heat through and to
combine the flavors. Serve immediately over the Green Rice. This recipe
yields ? servings.
