God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)
Because those in the world are so quick to live vicariously through their children, to catalog their successes in conversation and on social media, we Christians are tempted to follow suit. We want to show the world that our following in the pathway of Christ doesn’t make us losers, but that in fact we are empowered for even greater successes. We Christians herald our outspoken athletes and our teenage pop stars and in turn highlight whatever headlines our own children garner. Our standards, however, ought to be different. Our faith isn’t a better path to a better life, as the world defines it. It is instead a different path, a different life, and a different understanding of what we mean by better. We cherish academic success, but smart, I’m sorry to report, is not listed among the fruit of the Spirit. Neither is pretty, wealthy, athletic, musical. There is nothing wrong with those things, nothing wrong with excelling in those things. They are not, however, the goal. They are not the measure of success for those called to pick up their cross and follow Him.
Finely chop onion and bacon. Place in a small saucepan with oil, cover with
lid and stew on low heat, mixing occasionally, until onion is dissolved (it
takes more or less one hour). While your pasta is cooking, beat eggs with
parmesan cheese and pepper. Drain pasta, place it in a big china or
ceramics bowl and pour beaten eggs first, then the steaming hot onions and
bacon. Mix well and serve immediately: eggs should NOT be allowed to cook!
