God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)
Why do any of us get upset or tense when confronted? Why do any of us activate our inner lawyer and rise to our own defense? Why do any of us turn the tables and remind the other person that we are not the only sinner in the room? Why do we argue about the facts or dispute the other person’s interpretation. We do all of these things because we are convinced in our hearts that we are more righteous that how than we are being portrayed in the moment of confrontation. Proud people don’t welcome loving warning, rebuke, confrontation, question, criticism, or accountability, because they don’t feel the need for it. And when they do fail, they are very good at erecting plausible reasons for what they said or did, given the stress of the situation or relationship in which it was done.
Anything whereby we may glorify God is a talent. Our gifts, our influence, our money, our knowledge, our health, our strength, our time, our senses, our reason, our intellect, our memory, our affections, our privileges as members of Christ’s Church, our advantages as possessors of the Bible – all, all are talents. Whence came these things? What hand bestowed them? Why are we what we are? Why are we not the worms that crawl on the earth? There is only one answer to these questions. All that we have is a loan from God. We are God’s stewards. We are God’s debtors. Let this thought sink deeply into our hearts.
Mix the flour, baking powder and salt in a small bowl. In a large bowl,
beat the eggs and orange extract until frothy. Add sugar to the egg
mixture and then add the flour. Stir to mix. The dough will be a little
stiff. Add the apples and the raisins. Mix well. Pour the mixture into a
round pie pan. You can spray the pie pan w/ oil or not. I have tried both.
It sticks a little bit if you dont spray it. Bake at 325 degrees until the
top browns or toothpick inserted in middle of pie comes out clean.
