We Love God!

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

Indeed, a person who lives in the exercise of faith and love, and who finds by experience that it is good for him to draw near to God, will not need to be told how often he must pray, any more than how often he must converse with an earthly friend. Those whom we love, we love to be much with. Love is the best casuist, and either resolves or prevents a thousand scruples and questions, which may perplex those who only serve God from principles of constraint and fear. A believer will account those his happiest days, when he has most leisure and most liberty of spirit for the exercise of prayer.
John Newton

If we are feeling weighed down and exhausted, the problem isn’t Jesus. He is unfailingly an energizing presence. Nor is the problem the race He has called us to run. The problem is something else, even something non-sinful and allowable, but it prevents us from running an unleashed, all-out race. Getting clean rid of it, because our hearts are reaching for the promises of God — that is living by faith.

    Dairy Mexican Mexican 6 Servings

    INGREDIENTS

    2 lb Coiled fideos, vermicelli
    1/4 c Oil
    1 c Tomato sauce
    1 t Salt, or to taste
    1/4 c Garlic puree, *
    1 White onion, chopped
    6 c Stock, hot
    1 c Combination cheese
    Shredded
    1/2 c Bell pepper, chopped
    1 c Fresh tomato, chopped
    1 c Combination cheese
    Shredded

    INSTRUCTIONS

    Garlic Puree - peel 8 whole heads of garlic by smashing the cloves
with the side of a wide knife; the peel will slip off easily then.  Put
the peeled garlic in a blender with about 2 cups of water, and  puree.
Drain, if necessary, and store in a tightly closed glass jar  in the
refrigerator.  ** Combination Cheese - To come as close as possible to
the taste of  the cheese of Mexico (which is not readily available in
the United  States), we devised what I call "combination cheese". It is
equal  parts shredded yellow cheddar, provolone and jack cheeses. Sopa
seca  means dry soup and refers to a dish made with rice or a pasta
that  absorbs all the cooking liquid. Here is one of our favorites and
it  really does not have a meaningful English translation.  In a
skillet, lightly brown fideos coils on both sides in hot oil.  Transfer
to a 4-quart saucepan. Add remaining ingredients, except  cheese, and
simmer over low heat 20 minutes. Stir once or twice,  separating coils
with a long fork. Add 1 cup cheese and stir.  Continue cooking,
uncovered, until all the liquid has been absorbed.  Garnish with
additional cheese.  Recipe By     : El Charro Cafe Favorite Recipes
