We Love God!

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

The soldiers that spat upon Him, and mocked Him, met not with a reproachful expression from Him. He held His peace at their clamors, offered His back to their scourges, reviled them not when He lay under the greatest violence of their rage, was patient under His sufferings, while He was despised more than any man by the people. His calmness was more stupendous than their rage, and the angels could not but more inexpressibly wonder at the patience of the sufferer, than the unmercifulness of the executioners; He was more willing to die, than they were to put Him to death; He suffered not by force, He courted the effusion of His blood, when He knew that the hour which His Father had appointed, and man needed, was approaching. Neither the infamy of the cross, nor the sharpness of the punishment, nor the present and foreseen ingratitude of his enemies, could deter Him from desiring and effecting man's salvation. He went to it, not only as a duty, but an honor; and was content for a while to be the sport of devils, that He might be the spring of salvation to men.

1	lb	Tomatillos
1	c	Cold water
4		Cloves garlic, chopped
1		Onion, chopped
2		Jalepeno or serrano peppers
		chopped
		Fresh cilantro, optional
2	T	Salad oil

INSTRUCTIONS

Remove outer husk from tomatillos. Cook in 4 cups water for 10
minutes. Drain. Place in blender container with 1 cup cold water,
garlic, peppers, onion, and cilantro. Puree until almost liquid. Heat
oil in saucepan and pour in sauce. Season with salt and sugar. Lower
heat and simmer 5 minutes. If too sour, add another tsp. sugar.
Variation: for a sauce with a "toasted" taste, heat the tomatillos on
a heavy skillet or griddle, turning frequently, until the husks are
quite brown and the fruit is soft. Remove the husk and use the
tomatillos. Do not puree the sauce for a chunkier, salsa-type sauce.
Excellent with poultry, pork, or beef, burritos, tacos, chicken
enchiladas and tostadas.  Posted to CHILE-HEADS DIGEST by Judy Howle
