God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)
Where love is the compelling power, there is no sense of strain or conflict or bondage in doing what is right: the man or woman who is compelled by Jesus’ love and empowered by His Spirit does the will of God from the heart.
One of the most valuable aids to meditation is Scripture memorization. In fact, when I encounter someone who is battling discouragement or depression, I often ask two questions: “Are you singing to the Lord?” and “Are you memorizing Scripture?” These two exercises are not some magical formula to make all our problems go away, but they do have incredible power to change our perspective and attitude toward the issues we are facing.
"The darker (the redder) the saffron colour, the better the quality. It
usually comes from Spain, but the best, really expensive stuff, is grown in
Kashmir, where I went to see it growing. There are many different grades.
Watch out for fake or dyed saffron. Buy it from a reputable source. To use
it in a recipe, I roast it in a cast-iron pan until it's crisp to draw out
the colour, then crumble it lukewarm milk and let it sit for three to four
hours."
Place saffron in small, dry, hot pan over medium heat about 1 minute or
just until fragrant. Crumble into milk.
Fill large pot with about 13 cups water; add salt and bring to boil.
Meanwhile, place rice in medium bowl and cover with cold water.
Immediately drain rice through colander. Wash and drain two more times.
When water is boils, add rice and stir once; bring to boil. Cook 5
minutes; rice should be slightly hard in the centre.
Drain in colander and place in ovenproof dish. Drizzle saffron milk over
rice, tossing over a couple of times very gently. Divide butter into four
pieces; place over rice.
Cut pieces of aluminium foil 2 inches larger than rim of dish; place on
top of dish; place lid on foil. Bake in preheated 300F oven 40 to 50
minutes, checking after 40 minutes to see if rice is cooked.
Serve saffron-coloured streaked rice spooned on warmed platter. SERVES:6
