We Love God!

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

When there is a famine of the word of God in the land the spiritual nutrients that enable the eye to spot sin as sin is gone. And the spiritual protein that gives strength the moral muscle of the soul to do what is right is missing. The spiritual eye becomes diseased through malnutrition, and the clear lines between sin and righteousness begin to blur. The moral muscle of the will atrophies, and weakens, and the result is that the beckoning of the world wins because there is no strength to stand against it. When the ministry of the word goes wrong, many are caused to stumble.
John Piper

Knowing that God's way to the human heart (the will) is via the human head (the mind), the Puritans practiced meditation, discursive and systematic, on the whole range of biblical truth as they saw it applying to themselves. Puritan meditation on Scripture was modeled on the Puritan sermon; in meditation, the Puritan would seek to search and challenge his heart, stir his affections to hate sin and love righteousness, and encourage himself with God's promises.
J.I. Packer

INSTRUCTIONS

(Units: 100 g = 3 1/2 oz; 1 dl = 3 1/2 fl oz = 2/5 cup; 180 oC = 350
oF; 200 oC = 400 oF; 230 oC = 450 oF; 250 oC = 475 oF; 2.5 cm = 1
inch)  This is a recipe from the Vaud: both the pastry and the filling
are  local specialities. If you cannot get Vaudois wine, use any good
dry  white wine instead.  Pre-heat the oven to 260 oC.  Lightly butter
and flour a tart tin with a removable base 20 cm (8  in) in diameter.
To make the pastry, put the flour, baking powder and softened butter
together in a large bowl. Rub all the ingredients together with your
fingertips until the mixture resembles coarse semolina. Add the milk
and mix it in lightly and rapidly with your fingers, without exerting
any pressure. Form the pastry to a ball, using it to collect all the
loose flour. If need be, add another drop or two of milk.  Do not let
the pastry rest, but roll it out straight away to fit the  prepared
tart tin.  Mix the sugar, cinnamon and flour together. Strew this
mixture all  over the bottom of the tart (This is a liquid filling so
the bottom  of the tart is not pricked with a fork). Pour the wine over
the sugar  mixture and mix it in with your fingertips. Dot the surface
with the  butter, in flakes.  Cook the tart in the bottom of the
pre-heated oven for 15 to 25  minutes, turning it from time to time to
equalise the heat and to  prevent bubbles forming (at the end of the
cooking time, the filling  must look like "middle-firm" gelatin).
Leave the tart to cool before taking it out of the tin.  From: Fredy
