"trick" Kibbeh – We Love God!

As a Christian, you have the capacity to walk before God with a clear conscience: 1. Confess and forsake known sin. Examine your guilt feelings in light of Scripture. Deal with the sin God’s Word reveals (Pr. 28:13; 1 Jn. 1:9; Jas. 5:16; Psm. 32:5). 2. Ask forgiveness and be reconciled to anyone you have wronged (Mt. 5:23-24; 6:14-15). 3. Make restitution to those you’ve wronged (Num. 5:6-7; Lk. 19:8; Phile. 19). 4. Don’t procrastinate in clearing your wounded conscience. Some people put off dealing with their guilt, thinking their conscience will clear itself in time. It won't. Procrastination allows the guilt feelings to fester. That in turn generates depression, anxiety, and other emotional problems (Ac. 24:16). 5. Educate your conscience. A weak, easily grieved conscience results from a lack of spiritual knowledge (1 Cor. 8:7).

The "trick" in this Syrian-Lebanese  vegetable soup is that there's no
meat in the kibbeh "meatballs." The  idea that a vegetarian dish is a
deception (vegetarian dolmas are  known as yalanji, the Turkish word
for "counterfeit") goes back at  least 1,200 years in the Near East.
In bowl, mix bulgur, flour, 1/2 tablespoon salt, cinnamon, green
onions, mint and parsley. Add enough water to make thick dough. Rolls
into 24 very firmly packed balls the size of large marbles. Set aside
to dry.  Put 9 cups chicken stock in pot, add lentils and bring to boil
10  minutes. Add 2 1/2 tablespoons, reduce heat and simmer until
lentils  are tender, 20-25 minutes.  Add bulgur balls and boil 5
minutes. Add lemon juice, garlic and oil.  Simmer until balls are done,
10 minutes. Garnish with thin lemon  slices.  MM-RECIPES@IDISCOVER.NET

A Message from our Provider:

“Let Him therefore send and do what He will. By His grace, if we are His, we will face it, bow to it, accept it, and give thanks for it. God’s Providence is always executed in the ‘wisest manner’ possible. We are often unable to see and understand the reasons and causes for specific events in our lives, in the lives of others, or in the history of the world. But our lack of understanding does not prevent us from believing God. #Don Fortner”
