We Love God!

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

Prayer is the key which unlocks the door of God’s treasure-house. It is not too much to say that all real growth in the spiritual life – all victory over temptation, all confidence and peace in the presence of difficulties and dangers, all repose of spirit in times of great disappointment or loss, all habitual communion with God-depend upon the practice of secret prayer.

I was weeping in the most bitter contrition of my heart, when I heard the voice of children from a neighboring house chanting, “Take up and read; take up and read.” I could not remember ever having heard the like, so checking the torrent of my tears, I arose, interpreting it to be no other than a command from God to open the book and read the first chapter I should find. Eagerly then I returned to the place where I had laid the volume of the apostle. I seized, opened, and in silence read that section on which my eyes first fell: “Not in revelry and drunkenness, not in licentiousness and lewdness, not is strife and envy; but put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the flesh, to fulfill its lusts.” No further would I read, nor did I need to. For instantly at the end of this sentence, it seemed as if a light of serenity infused into my heart and all the darkness of doubt vanished away.

INGREDIENTS

Apricot or Peach Preserves

INSTRUCTIONS

Use firm, slightly underripe fruit. Peel and cut into lengthwise slices:
apricots or peaches. The fruit may be dipped briefly into boiling water to
facilitate the removal of skins. Remove the stones. Measure the fruit.
Allow to each cup: 3/4C sugar, 2tbsp water, 1-1/2tsp lemon juice. Stir this
syrup and cook it 5min. Add the fruit. You may omit the water and just pour
the sugar over the apricots/peaches, letting them stand 2 hours before
continuing. Simmer fruit til transparent. Place in glasses or jars. If the
syrup seems too abundant, place the fruit in jars and reduce the syrup til
thick. Pour over fruit. Add to the syrup(if desired): lemon juice -- about
2tsp to every cup of fruit.
