We Love God!

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

God never pursues His glory at the expense of the good of His people, nor does He ever seek our good at the expense of His glory. He has designed His eternal purpose so that His glory and our good are inextricably bound together. What comfort and encouragement this should be to us. If we are going to learn to trust God in adversity, we must believe that just as certainly as God will allow nothing to subvert His glory, so He will allow nothing to spoil the good He is working out in us and for us.
Jerry Bridges

Under the New Covenant, however, it undergoes a subtle variation in that Christ sets Himself forward as the comprehensive Lord, a position that we understand can only be accorded to God Himself. The justification for this remarkable claim by Christ is twofold: first, by very nature He was God and second, His person as the God-man was awarded the full title “Lord” (i.e. Yahweh) upon the completion of His mission in this world (Phil. 2:9-11). We should not be surprised, then, to hear Him say, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to Me” (Matt. 28:18).

CATEGORY CUISINE TAG YIELD
Dairy Soups 1 Servings

INGREDIENTS

1 sm Head of fresh celery
2 lg Cooking apples
1 oz Butter
60 fl Stock
2 md Onions, peeled and diced
Salt and milled pepper
Milk to finish
Chopped parsley and browned flaked almonds to garnish
1 ts Soft brown sugar

INSTRUCTIONS

In a large saucepan sweat off the diced onion in the butter. Wash, trim and
dice the celery, add to the onion and continue on a low heat. Remove and
bruises from the apples and grate them into your pan, discarding the core.
Cook for a further 10 minutes before adding the stock, seasoning and sugar
~ beware too much salt if you are using a stock cube. Bring to the boil,
then simmer, lid on, for 30 minutes - don't over cook or the celery flavour
becomes jaded and the colours dull. Allow to cool a little before
liquidising thoroughly. Pass through a large mesh sieve to ensure there are
no stringy threads of celery remaining. Check seasoning and consistency,
adding a little milk if needed. Serve in warmed bowls, sprinkled with
parsley and the browned almond flakes.
