God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)
How does every Christian start out? In repentance. We finally admit that we’ve been completely wrong about everything every moment of every day throughout our entire lives, because we’ve been wrong about God, and God is omni-relevant to us at every level of our beings all the time. But from then on, for too many of us, we’re never wrong again. That’s amazing. The first of Martin Luther’s 95 Theses was, “When our Lord and Master Jesus Christ said ‘Repent,’ he intended that the entire life of believers should be repentance.”
Perhaps you don’t drift the way that I do, but I constantly forget the deep hole of depravity from which the Lord’s mighty love rescued me. Drifting does not take any effort at all; just stop cultivating the knowledge of Christ, and the evil current of secularism does the rest. All passion for the lost seems increasingly a fading memory. Jesus weeping over Jerusalem, Paul willing to be cursed for the sake of his countrymen, those things become very remote to the point of being unreal.
Cream together butter, peanut butter and sugars. Beat in eggs. In a
separate bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Stir into batter. Put batter in refrigerator for 1 hour. Roll into 1" balls
and put on baking sheets. Flatten each ball with a fork, making a
criss-cross pattern. Bake in a preheated 375 deg F oven for about 10
minutes or until cookies begin to brown. Do not over-bake. Makes 4 dozen
cookies.

A Message from our Provider:
“A man who is eating or lying with his wife or preparing to go to sleep in humility, thankfulness and temperance, is, by Christian standards, in an infinitely higher state than one who is listening to Bach or reading Plato in a state of pride. #C.S. Lewis”
