God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)

What, then, does submission and respect look like for a woman in a dating relationship? Here are some guidelines: 1. A woman should allow the man to initiate the relationship. This does not mean that she does nothing. She helps! If she thinks there is a good possibility for a relationship, she makes herself accessible to him and helps him to make conversation, putting him at ease and encouraging him as opportunities arise (she does the opposite when she does not have interest in a relationship with a man). A godly woman will not try to manipulate the start of a relationship, but will respond to the interest and approaches of a man in a godly, encouraging way. 2. A godly woman should speak positively and respectfully about her boyfriend, both when with him and when apart. 3. She should give honest attention to his interests and respond to his attention and care by opening up her heart. 4. She should recognize the sexual temptations with which a single man will normally struggle. Knowing this, she will dress attractively but modestly, and will avoid potentially compromising situations. She must resist the temptation to encourage sexual liberties as a way to win his heart. 5. The Christian woman should build up the man with God’s Word and give encouragement to godly leadership. She should allow and seek biblical encouragement from the man she is dating. 6. She should make “helping” and “respecting” the watchwords of her behavior toward a man. She should ask herself, “How can I encourage him, especially in his walk with God?” “How can I provide practical helps that are appropriate to the current place in our relationship?” She should share with him in a way that will enable him to care for her heart, asking, “What can I do or say that will help him to understand who I really am, and how can I participate in the things he cares about?” 7. She must remember that this is a brother in the Lord. She should not be afraid to end an unhealthy relationship, but should seek to do so with charity and grace. Should the relationship not continue forward, the godly woman will ensure that her time with a man will have left him spiritually blessed (Richard and Sharon Phillips).

Connola’s Jalapeno Poppers

January 22, 2023

CATEGORY	CUISINE	TAG	YIELD
Vegetables, Grains, Dairy, Eggs	Mexican	Vegetables, Appetizers	12	Servings

INGREDIENTS

12	lg	Jalapenos; seeded and cut in half
2	c	Monterey Jack Cheese shredded
1	lg	Egg
2	tb	Milk
1	tb	Flour
1	ts	Parmesan; grated or Locatelli or Romano
		Salt & Pepper
1 1/2	c	Bread Crumbs; seasoned or unseasoned
		Vegetable Oil for deep frying

INSTRUCTIONS

Wash jalapenos, cut in half and take out seeds.  Stuff each half with
grated jack cheese. In shallow bowl, mix flour, egg, parmesan, milk, salt &
pepper to taste. Place breadcrumbs in flat dish. Dip jalapeno in egg
mixture and then in breadcrumbs.  Place in freezer for 1/2 hour. Take out
of freezer and deep fry in hot oil until golden brown. The seasoned
breadcrumb will give you more flavor and since it is salted, you don't need
to add much salt to the egg mixture. The unseasoned breadcrumb will give
your coating more of a firm consistency when fried.
VARIATIONS: Use jack cheese with pimentos for a mild flavor, or jalapenos
for a double inferno.  Also, add some chili powder and/or cumin to the egg
mixture for a more "Mexican" type flavor. From: Connie Rizzo
