God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)
Any training – physical, mental, or spiritual – is characterized at first by failure. We fail more often than we succeed. But if we persevere, we gradually see progress till we are succeeding more often than failing. This is true as we seek to put to death particular sins. At first it seems we are making no progress, so we become discouraged and think, What’s the use?! I can never overcome that sin. That is exactly what Satan wants us to think. It is at this point that we must exercise perseverance. We keep wanting instant success, but holiness doesn’t come that way. Our sinful habits are not broken overnight. Follow-through is required to make any change in our lives, and follow-through requires perseverance.
Our devotion must culminate in a conscious yielding of every part of our personality, every ambition, every relationship, and every hope to Him. This done, we have reached the apex of personal devotion. As Thomas a Kempis said, “As Thou wilt; what Thou wilt; when Thou wilt.”

++++++++++++++ +++++ Remove membrane from flank steak. If it is a thick
slab of meat, slice with grain into thin sheet about 1/4" thick. Slice
across grain into matchsticks about 2 1/2" long. Halve and core bell
pepper; scald pepper halves until color turns bright green; plunge in cold
water to stop cooking process. Slice pepper thinly to match cooked meat.
Peel and quarter garlic clove; add to peanut oil. Mix sauce ingredients.
Stir-frying: Heat wok as hot as possible. Add garlic and 1/2 the oil;
stir; remove garlic when it browns. Add salt to oil; stir. Add half of
flank steak; toss and stir briskly to coat with oil and prevent scorching
of meat. When meat begins to shrivel, remove to platter. Rinse wok;
reheat; add rest of oil. Stir-fry remaining meat. Add peppers, sauce,
other beef; toss briskly for about 1 minute until sauce evaporates. Serve.
Garnishing note: Time and inclination permitting, deep-fry about 12 shrimp
chips. Arrange on serving platter around beef and peppers.
