God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)
Bodily exercise will profit nothing if abstracted from those more spiritual. The glory that God hath, and the comfort and advantage that will accrue to your souls is mostly from the spiritual exercise of religion.
All the afflictions of God’s people are designed, under His gracious management – to test, to make manifest, and to exercise, those graces and virtues which He has implanted in them. Though afflictions in themselves are not joyous but grievous, nevertheless they yield the peaceable fruits of righteousness in those who are exercised thereby. Afflictions serve to quicken the spirit of devotion in us; and to rouse us from that formality and indifference which frequently attend a long course of ease and prosperity. We are constrained to seek God with sincerity and fervor, when His chastening hand is upon us, since we then feel our absolute need of that help and deliverance, which He alone can give us.
In a large saucepan, saute the garlic and the onion in the butter until
onion is translucent.
Add the broth, potatoes, carrots, celery [no tops], and zucchini to the
pan.
Bring the soup to a boil, simmer for 15 to 20 minutes, or until potatoes
are tender.
Add the dill, parsley, salt and pepper, reserved celery tops, and if
desired, the thickener (1 T. cornstarch dissolved in 3T. water). Simmer the
soup until it is slightly thickened. Serve immediately, with croutons, if
desired.
NOTES : very good - nice to have a vegetable soup without tomatoes
