God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)
They hurt us in that lies deceive us, not just other people. They persuade us that we are on top of our problem. We think we can fool others, but we can’t be fooled. With other people, the power of lies is obvious. Anyone who has been lied to knows that lies divide people; lies are the language of war. With God, lies provide evidence that our allegiances are not with Him. Instead, they show that our allegiance is to Satan – the Father of Lies – and to ourselves.
When you are tempted to any vanity – set the blessed Redeemer before you, consider His example, and ask yourself, “How would Jesus, my Lord and Master, have acted in such a case? Would He have spent His time upon such trifles? Would He have spoken such and such; or done this or the other thing, which I am solicited to do? And shall I give way to that which would be a manifest deviation from His holy example? God forbid!”
In large saucepan, cover onions and lemon rind with water; bring to boil
and boil for 5 minutes. Drain; refresh under cold running water and drain
again. Discard rind. Peel onions and arrange in 13 x 9 inch casserole dish;
pour olive oil over.
Bake, uncovered in 375=F8F oven, basting occasionally, for 40 minutes. Add
port, vinegar, raisins, sugar, and pepper to taste. Bake for 30 minutes
longer or until juices are syrupy. Makes 12 servings. Source: Canadian
