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

In order to break our wills to His, God brings us to the foot of the Cross and there shows us what real brokenness is. We see those wounded Hands and Feet, that Face of Love crowned with thorns and we see the complete brokenness of the One who said, “Not My will, but Thine be done,” as He drank the bitter cup of our sin to its dregs. So the way to be broken is to look on Him and to realize it was our sin which nailed Him there. Then as we see the love and brokenness of the God who died in our place, our hearts will become strangely melted and we will want to be broken for Him and we shall pray, “Oh, to be saved from myself, dear Lord, Oh, to be lost in Thee, Oh, that it might be no more I, But Christ that lives in me.” And some of us have found that there is no prayer that God is so swift to answer as the prayer that He might break us.

Roy Hession

It is God's word that does convert, quicken, comfort, and build up, or, on the other side, wound and beat down. What is the reason that there was so great an alteration made by the ministry of Christ and His disciples, by the apostles and others after them, indeed, by Luther, and other ministers of reformed churches? They did not preach traditions of elders like the scribes; nor men's inventions like the Roman Catholics do. They preached the pure word of God. The more purely God's word is preached, the more deeply it pierces and the more kindly it works.

(Sasha Groznii) Hope this satisfies  what you're looking for. They're
delicious and the accompanying  mayonnaise is quite nice as well. The
recipe is originally from Bon  Appetit, September 1995, the issue

in saucepan of boiling water  for 30 seconds. Drain. Transfer leaves to
medium bowl filled with ice  water to cool. Pat dry on paper towels.
Finely chop basil . Mix  mayonnaise, mustard, lemon juice, and cayenne
together. Set aside 1/2  cup mayo for the crab cakes. Mix basil into
remainder and  refrigerate. FOR CRAB CAKES : Heat olive oil in large
heavy skillet  over medium heat. Add celery and onion and saut until
tender, about 5  minutes. Transfer to a large bowl. Stir in crabmeat,
2/3 cup  breadcrumbs, chopped chives, and reserved mayonanaise. Season
to  taste with salt and pepper. Using 1/3 cup for each, form into 12 2
1/2" cakes. Arrange cakes on a baking sheet.  Place flour in a small
bowl. Whisk eggs in another bowl. Place remaining 2 cups breadcrumbs
in a third bowl. Bread each cake in the following order: flour, eggs,
