God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)
We have found it important not to enter the family worship time with rigid expectations and a rigid plan. We want an atmosphere of freedom, where our teenagers feel free to ask questions, verbalize doubts, express confusion, debate applications, and try to draw inferences and applications, all without the fear of being silenced, rebuked, or ridiculed. We want the truth to connect, to convict, and to capture our teenagers, so we are in no hurry. We want to give them time to understand and the Spirit time to work. This time is for them. We have no expectations about the amount of material we cover and our goal is not to get our teenagers to agree with us. The goal is to stimulate in them a hunger for God, so we want to be relaxed, patient, and creative.
As it pertains to temperance (Tit. 2:2), we are talking about someone who is sober in thought, even-keeled and moderate. Young people tend to be emotional and impulsive, but the mature saint should have learned stability, consistency and balance. Men who lack temperance are seen bouncing in and out of ministry, constantly changing jobs. Life is a continual roller-coaster of extremes, overreactions, unstable relationships, inconsistencies and faithless living. On the contrary there is a steadiness to a temperate man. He prays and waits on the Lord to save making a foolish or rash decision. He doesn’t overreact to problems. He is self-controlled. He recognizes the hills worth dying on. He thinks before he speaks. He avoids false excitement but also refuses to be paralyzed by sorrow. He wisely controls his money, feelings and words. He is not tossed here and there by every comment he hears off the lips of another. He knows how to ride out the storms of life.
1. Let one 17 ounce package frozen puff pastry stand at room temperature 20
minutes to thaw slightly. Preheat oven to 350'F. Unfold one sheet of
pastry; cut along fold lines to make three 10x3" rectangles; cut each
rectangle crosswise into 3 pieces. Place pastry pieces on large cookie
sheet. Repeat with remaining sheet of pastry. Bake 15 minutes or until
puffed and golden. With pancake turner, remove pastries from cookie sheet
to wire racks to cool.
2. Meanwhile, in 10" skillet over medium heat, heat sausages and water to
boiling. Cover; simmer 5 minutes. Remove cover; continue cooking, turning
sausages frequently, until water evaporates and sausages are well browned,
about 20 minutes. Remove sausages to paper towels to drain. Thinly slice
sausages.
3. Cut turkey meat into bite-sized chunks; set aside. (Reserve turkey bones
for soup another day.)
4. In 8-quart Dutch oven or saucepot over medium heat, in hot butter or
margarine, cook onions and mushrooms, stirring occasionally, until
vegetables are tender. Stir in flour, salt, pepper, paprika, and bouillon
until blended; cook 1 minute. Gradually stir in milk and sherry until
smooth; cook, stirring constantly, until sauce thickens slightly and boils.
Add turkey meat and sausage to cream sauce in Dutch oven; heat through.
5. To serve, spoon turkey mixture into large chafing dish. Garnish with
parsley. Split each pastry pillow horizontally in half. Let each person
spoon some creamed turkey over pastry.
