We Love God!

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

The Bible is the portrait of Jesus Christ.
John Stott

The twentieth century was the century of the self. Almost all virtues, especially love, were reinterpreted to put the self at the center. This means that almost all people are saturated and shaped with the conviction that the essence of being loved as a human is being treasured or esteemed. That is, you love me to the degree that your act of treasuring terminates on me… If they ask, “Do you treasure me or do you treasure Christ?” I answer, “I treasure Christ, and, desiring to treasure Him more, I treasure your treasuring Christ.” Without the miraculous work of the Holy Spirit removing human self from the center, this will not satisfy American people. They are so saturated with self-oriented love that they can scarcely conceive what true Christian love is. True Christian love is not my making much of them, but my helping them to enjoy making much of God. This is love. If my treasuring terminates on them I play right into the hands of the devil and their own self-centered destruction. But if my treasuring terminates on God and their treasuring God, then I direct them to the one source of all joy. And that act of directing them to God, their hope and life and joy, is what love is.
John Piper

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Season the portobellos with salt and

over the mushrooms. Cover the pan with plastic wrap and refrigerate
overnight. Season the meat with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, salt and pepper.
In a hot saute pan, sear the tenderloin for 2 minutes on all sides. Place
the pan in the oven and roast for about 6 to 8 minutes for medium-rare.
Remove from the oven and cool completely. Remove the portobellos from the
refrigerator and drain. In a large saute pan, heat the remaining olive oil.
When the pan is hot, add the mushroom caps and cook for 2 minutes on each
side. Remove the mushrooms from the pan and cool. Slice the mushrooms
1/4-inch thick. Slice the tenderloin 1/4-inch thick. Spread both sides of
the onion rolls with the Garlic Aioli. To build the sandwich, place a
fourth of the tenderloin on one half of each roll. Top the beef with a
layer of the mushrooms and cheese. In a mixing bowl, toss the lettuce with
a drizzle of the extra-virgin olive oil. Season with salt and pepper. Pile
the seasoned lettuce on top of the cheese. Top the sandwiches with the
remaining halves of bread. Serve the sandwiches with the sweet potato
chips. This recipe yields 4 servings.
