God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)
Forgiveness brings great joy, not only to the forgiven, but especially to the forgiver. The Greek term for “forgiveness” (aphiemi) comes from a word that means “to let go.” Forgiveness is a release, a letting go of self-destructive feelings such as anger, bitterness and revenge. Those attitudes poison intimacy with God and harmony with human beings.
It was thus in mercy that God cursed the woman and the man, injecting a poison into their relationship for which He alone is the antidote. In the futility of love apart from God, Adam and Eve were to turn back to God, just as we must turn to God today for grace to repent of sin and minister in love. Love between a man and woman simply cannot work without love for God at the center of the relationship; by means of His curses, God mercifully brings this fact to our attention so as to woo us back to Himself (Richard and Sharon Phillips).
Using an electric mixer, blend the first 3 ingredients together. Add
confectioner's sugar gradually, beating continuosly til smooth. If neccess-
ary, add more water to thin. (This icing isn't so sweet tasting, but is
rather soft and off-white in color. It is suggested to ice a carrot cake.)
