We Love God!

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

No unwelcome tasks become any the less unwelcome by putting them off till tomorrow. It is only when they are behind us and done, that we begin to find that there is a sweetness to be tasted afterwards, and that the remembrance of unwelcome duties unhesitatingly done is welcome and pleasant. Accomplished, they are full of blessing, and there is a smile on their faces as they leave us. Undone, they stand threatening and disturbing our tranquility, and hindering our communion with God. If there be lying before you any bit of work from which you shrink, go straight up to it, and do it at once. The only way to get rid of it is to do it.
Alexander MacLaren

This guilt issue follows us throughout our Christian walk. And as we mature in Christ we learn the value of dealing with it rightly and the dangers of dealing with it wrongly. We learn that even though God has forgiven us, we can sense it when not God, but Satan “the accuser” (Rev. 12:10) seeks to remind us of our failures and faults. We learn how to engage in spiritual battle to prevent false guilt from setting in. We learn to not trust in our feelings as it pertains to guilt, but fully stand on the promises from God’s Word. We learn to allow that which makes us guilty to only be the things that violate God’s Word. We learn the difference between real guilt and an overactive conscience. We learn the need to keep excelling in Christ, but refuse to allow the conviction to grow spiritually become a continual self-loathing low-grade guilt that we aren’t doing enough for Jesus. We learn to greater recognize our sinfulness and yet the incredible promise that we can always “draw near with confidence to the throne of grace, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need” (Heb. 4:16).

INSTRUCTIONS

Hi! In response to K.D.D. who wanted a butternut squash soup, I got
this recipe from an Albert Stockli cookbook, Splendid Fare, years  ago;
and it has long been a Thanksgiving favorite. I make my own  stock and
I substitute Coffee Rich or Farm Rich with no loss of  texture or
flavor. You could also substitute butternut squash for  pumpkin in any
pumpkin soup recipe. Enjoy! Paula  Combine the squash halves, apples,
onion, herbs, stock, bread cubes,  salt, and pepper in a large heavy
saucepan. Bring to a boil and  simmer uncovered for about 45 minutes,
or until the vegetables are  soft.  Scoop the flesh of the squash out,
discard the skins, and return the  pulp to the soup. Puree the soup in
the blender or food processor  until smooth. You will probably have
twoo blender loads. Return the  pureeed soup to the saucepan.  In a
small bowl, beat the egg yolks and cream together. Beat in a  little of
the hot soup, then stir back into the saucepan. Heat but do  not boil,
and serve immediately.  Posted to JEWISH-FOOD digest by "Paula Miller
