God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)
The awareness of sin, a deep awareness of disobedience, and painful confession of sin used to be our shadow. Christians hated sin. They feared it, they fled from it, they grieved over it. Some of our [forefathers] agonized over their sins. A man who lost his temper might wonder if he could still go to holy communion. A woman who for years envied her more attractive and intelligent sister might wonder if this sin threatened her very salvation... That shadow has dimmed. Nowadays the accusation, 'You have sinned,' is often said with a grin and with a tone that signals an inside joke. At one time this accusation still had the power to jolt people.
If you are not feeding your soul on the realities of the presence, promises, and provisions of Christ, you will ask the people, situations, and things around you to be the messiah that they can never be. If you are not attaching your identity to the unshakable love of your Savior, you will ask the things in your life to be your Savior, and it will never happen. If you are not requiring yourself to get your deepest sense of well-being vertically, you will shop for it horizontally, and you will always come up empty. If you are not resting in the one true gospel, preaching it to yourself over and over again, you will look to another gospel to meet the needs of your unsettled heart.
Preheat the oven to 375 F. In a bowl with an electric mixer cream the
butter with the brown sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy and beat
in the egg yolk mixture or the egg white. Add the flour, the baking powder,
the salt, and the vanilla, stirring until the dough is blended well, and
stir in the chips and the cereal. Arrange level tablespoons of the dough 2
inches apart on a lightly greased baking sheet and bake the cookies in the
middle of the oven for 8-10 minutes, or until they are golden brown.
Transfer the cookies with a spatula to a rack and let them cool. Source:
