God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)
Belief in luck and belief in a sovereign God are mutually exclusive, for if an omniscient, omnipotent Creator God exists then luck makes no sense. Things don’t “just happen.” Nothing – including the secondary causes operative in the universe (the “laws” of nature and human choices) – happens outside of God’s will and disposition. So belief in God not only dispels any idea of luck, it also rejects any idea of chance as a determining factor in natural events or people’s destiny… Any trust in luck rather than God is therefore a form of idolatry (Rex Rogers).
There is no doubt that the glories of nature reveal the glory of God (Psm. 19:1-6). He created the world in such magnificent splendor that His creative hand is seen at every turn. The vastness of the ocean (Job 38:16), the beauty of the stars (Psm. 8:1-4), the majesty of the mountains (Psm. 65:5-9), the wonder of the rain (Psm. 147:7-8) – these and so much more point to the awesome handiwork of the Creator.
FRUIT SAUCE
Heat oven to 375 F. Pour butter over crumbs; mix until all are buttered.
Drain syrup from cherries and apricots; reserve for sauce. Place a layer of
crumbs in a 1 1/2 quart baking dish. Add a layer of fruit; sprinkle with
1/3 of the sugar, lemon juice and rind, spices and salt. Repeat until all
ingredients have been used, reserving a few crumbs for top. Bake 30
minutes. Serve warm with Fruit Sauce. Makes 10 to 12 servings.
Fruit Sauce: Blend 1/4 cup of the fruit juice with cornstarch until smooth.
Heat remaining syrup to boiling; stir in cornstarch mixture. Cook until
thickened and clear, stirring constantly. Add salt, nutmeg, and sugar; stir
until well blended. Remove from heat; cool. Whip cream; fold into sauce
with lemon flavoring.
