We Love God!

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

For my part, my soul is like a hungry and thirsty child; and I need His love and consolation for my refreshment. I am a wandering and lost sheep; and I need Him as a good and faithful shepherd. My soul is like a frightened dove pursued by the hawk; and I need His wounds for a refuge. I am a feeble vine; and I need His cross to lay hold of, and to wind myself about. I am a sinner, and I need His righteousness. I am naked and bare; and I need His holiness and innocence for a covering. I am ignorant, and I need His teaching; simple and foolish, and I need the guidance of His Holy Spirit. In no situation, and at no time, can I do without Him. Do I pray? He must prompt, and intercede for me. Am I arraigned by Satan at the divine tribunal. He must be my Advocate. Am I in affliction? He must be my Helper. Am I persecuted by the world? He must defend me. When I am forsaken, He must be my support; when I am dying, my life; when moldering in the grave, my Resurrection. Well, then, I will rather part with all the world, and all that it contains, than with Thee, my Savior.
Gotthold Lessing

There is a way in which the Spirit leads the sons of God, a way that others do not know; and that is by inclining them to do the will of God, to go in the path of truth and Christian holiness from a holy, heavenly disposition which the Spirit of God gives them. The Spirit inclines and leads them to those things that are excellent and agreeable to God. He enlightens them with respect to their duty, by making their eye single and pure, whereby the whole body is full of light. The purifying influence of the Spirit corrects the taste of the soul; thereby He savors those things that are holy and agreeable to God. Like one with a discriminating taste, He chooses those things that are good and wholesome, and rejects those that are evil. And thus the Spirit of God leads and guides; He enables men to understand the commands and counsels of God's Word, and rightly to apply them.
Jonathan Edwards

INSTRUCTIONS

Butter a 2-quart steamed pudding mold and line it with wax paper and then
butter and flour the paper. In a food processor coarsely chop cranberries.
Transfer to a bowl and add almonds, sugar, flour, orange zest, ginger,
cinnamon and allspice and combine. In another bowl mix bread crumbs, melted
butter, milk, eggs, baking powder, sugar and salt. Combine the bread crumb
mixture with the cranberry mixture. Spoon the batter into the prepared
mold, a little at a time, tapping the mold as it is filled to eliminate any
air bubbles. Cover the mold tightly with a lid and tie with a towel wrung
out in cold water and floured. Tie a knot at the top of the towel to
facilitate removal of the mold from the kettle. Set a rack in the bottom of
a kettle and add enough simmering water to reach 3 inches up the sides of
the mold. Transfer the mold to the kettle. Keep the water at a brisk but
not a rolling boil on the stove top. Cover the kettle with a lid. Steam the
pudding for 2 hours, checking occasionally to make certain the water
remains at a boil, adding more water throughout the cooking process as
necessary. To test for doneness, insert a skewer in the center of the
pudding. It should come out with crumbs adhering to it. Return the lid to
the mold and transfer it to a rack. The pudding will stay warm in the mold,
covered, for several hours. To make the glaze, combine cranberry juice,
sugar and salt in a saucepan. Simmer the juice, stirring, until the sugar
has dissolved. Bring the mixture to a boil and swirl gently until a candy
thermometer reads 250 degrees. Add whole cranberries and remove the pan
from the heat. Let the glaze cool and then chill it, covered, until ready
to serve. To serve, unmold the pudding onto a serving plate and pour the
cranberry glaze over it. This recipe yields ?? servings.
