We Love God!

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

This is why we speak the truth. Since God is truth, we – His offspring – are called to imitate Him and be truth tellers. It is one way that God’s people are recognized. Lies and deception are wrong because they are against God’s very nature… Speaking truth instead of lies is not simply being nice. It is a declaration of allegiance. Truth is a shibboleth – a telltale mark – revealing that you belong to the kingdom of God.
Edward Welch

We do not choose suffering simply because we are told to, but because the one who tells us to describes it as the path to everlasting joy. He beckons us into the obedience of suffering not to demonstrate the strength of our devotion to duty, nor to reveal the vigor of our moral resolve, nor to prove the heights of our tolerance for pain; but rather to manifest, in childlike faith, the infinite preciousness of his all-satisfying promises. Moses 'chose to share ill-treatment with the people of God rather than enjoy the fleeting pleasures of sin…because he looked to the reward' (Hebrews 11:25-26). Therefore his obedience glorified the reward of grace, not the resolve to suffer.

Yam Chili (vegan)

CATEGORY CUISINE TAG YIELD
Grains Vegan Dec., Digest 1 Servings

INGREDIENTS

1 40-oz can yams/sweet
Potatoes
1 29-oz can tomato puree
1 To 2 cup dried beans, *
1/4 c Barbecue sauce
1 T Dehydrated onion
1 t Black Pepper
1 T Chili powder
1/2 t Cinnamon

INSTRUCTIONS

Cook up the beans normally (soak, boil, simmer).  Pour yams into pot,
including liquid.  Smash lightly. Add tomato  puree, stir through.  Add
spices, stir through. Add cooked beans,  stir through. Simmer for for a
few minutes to mellow out.  (*) Beans:  I keep a 'bean bucket' of mixed
beans, usually including  pea beans, black-eyed peas, pinto beans,
split peas, lentils, navy  beans, pinto beans; often including great
northern beans, roman  beans, pink beans, chili beans, barley, and
others.  Whenever there's  room in the bucket I pour in a bag of
something that seems  underrepresented.  This would probably be better
with fresh yams and tomatoes, but the  canned yams were on sale half
price the day after Thanksgiving...  Posted by "Aliza R. Panitz"
