God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)
Let thy great joy and comfort evermore be, to have His pleasure done in thee, though in pains, sickness, persecutions, oppressions, or inward griefs and pressures of heart, coldness or barrenness of mind, darkening of thy will and senses, or any temptations spiritual or bodily.
The devil will try to destroy us by leading us into immoral behavior (Eph. 4:27). That is a real struggle for every Christian. Which is easier: to march around the city and claim it for Christ or to stop running down a fellow believer behind her back? Which is the more demanding: to pray over someone that the demon of jealousy be cast out or going up to someone and asking their forgiveness for the way you have hurt them by your cutting remarks inspired by jealousy? I know which is a real wrestling match for me (Eph. 6:12). This is where the real battle lies in Christian relationships, putting into practice at personal cost Christian truth – not some imaginary Dungeon and Dragons world.
1. For each box, cut out and bake 5 squares of the same size. Cut one
larger for top. 2. Trim all edges square. Use confectioners icing to "glue"
4 squares together for sides. 3. Trim 5th for bottom and glue in place with
icing. Trim larger square to sit on top. 4. Roll out square gumdrops in
sugar until thin; cut into shapes and attach to box with icing in whatever
patterns or designs you wish. 5. At this point you can put something inside
the box before you glue the top on. Little toys, chocolate kisses, other
small cookies etc are some ideas. 6. Glue on the top and the kids have to
eat them to get inside. The kids will go nuts over these little surprises.
