God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)
Thou Son of the Blessed, what grace was manifest in Thy condescension! Grace brought Thee down from heaven; Grace stripped Thee of Thy glory; Grace made Thee poor and despicable; Grace made Thee bear such burdens of sin, such burdens of sorrow, such burdens of God’s curse as are unspeakable.
If a man doubts his manliness, he needs only to believe what is already true. God created him to be a man and to live as a man by being strong and keeping His Word. Even a man that the world would consider weak, feeble, and the least 'manly' can be stronger than many in the world if he believes God and keeps His commandments. He does not need to take a trip to the wilderness and wait for a voice from heaven to declare to his soul that he is a man. He does not have to wait for his father or some father figure to somehow bestow 'manness' upon him. He doesn't have to prove to himself or to others that he has what it takes to do whatever the world or he himself deems is important and manly. Masculinity is given by God to men, and men must live it out Biblically rather than perverting it and redefining it in worldly, carnal, and selfish terms.
Soak navy beans overnight. Drain them and place in large soup pot with
onions, leek, carrots, and garlic. Add water to an inch above the level of
the beans. Bring them to a boil and then simmer, covered, until tender
(about 1 1/2 hours). Mix in the salt, pepper, and paprika. Ladle out 2
cups of the hot bean water and slowly stir it into the flour until smooth.
Add the flour mixture to the beans, stirring constantly. Remove the soup
from the heat and whisk in the sour cream and then the vinegar. Gently
reheat the soup for about 10 minutes.
