We Love God!

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

All the ideas of Christianity might be discovered in some other religion, yet there would be in that other religion no Christianity. For Christianity depends, not upon a complex of ideas, but upon the narration of an event. Without that event, the world, in the Christian view, is altogether dark, and humanity is lost under the guilt of sin. There can be no salvation by the discovery of eternal truth, for eternal truth brings naught but despair, because of sin. But a new face has been put upon life by the blessed thing that God did when He offered up His only begotten Son.
Gresham Machen

We must never forget that good feelings alone in religion are not the grace of God. We may know the truth intellectually. We may often feel pierced in conscience. We may have religious affections awakened within us, have many anxieties about our souls, and shed many tears. But all this is not conversion. It is not the genuine, saving work of the Holy Spirit.

INGREDIENTS

12 sm Red potatoes
1 lb Fresh asparagus; sliced diagonally
6 Whole carrots; sliced diagonally
DRESSING as follows
3/4 c Extra virgin olive oil
6 tb Red wine vinegar
1 tb Sugar
1/4 c Fresh parsley; minced
3 Fresh basil leaves; minced
2 Cloves garlic; minced
Salt and pepper; to taste
1 Shallot; finely diced
Romaine lettuce; optional

INSTRUCTIONS

Look for "small new potatoes" with purple-red skins, and fewer deep
eyes.
Boil rinsed potatoes in plenty of lightly salted water, about 15
minutes, or until just tender.  Drain and set aside.
Cut the asparagus and carrots to size before cooking.  Steam each
vegetable separately (a dente).
-Asparagus (1-1/2 to 2-inch lengths) 1-2 minutes.
-Carrots (1/4-1/3-inch thick) 5 minutes.
Put the vegetables in a bowl and chill:  to stop cooking and to cool the
potatoes enough so that they can be handled without crumbling.  Slice the
red potatoes 1/4 to 1/2 inch thick. Prepare the dressing in a blender, food
processor, or hand-held grinder.  Season with salt and freshly ground
pepper.  Drizzle on the salad and toss gently to coat. Fold in the tender
shallot (or scallions; spring-green onions, sweet onion). Cover and chill
(about 2 hours). Lettuce (optional).
Cooksnote  - substitute fresh rosemary for the basil.  Use fresh herbs

NOTES : Here's an eye-appealing potato salad from Wisconsin.  Asparagus is
grown there.
