One day as I was passing into the field…this sentence fell upon my soul. Thy righteousness is in heaven. And…I saw with the eyes of my soul Jesus Christ at God’s right hand; there, I say, was my righteousness; so that wherever I was, or whatever I was doing, God could not say of me, he [lacks] my righteousness, for that was just before him. I also saw, moreover, that it was not my good frame of heart that made my righteousness better, nor yet my bad frame that made my righteousness worse, for my righteousness was Jesus Christ himself, “The same yesterday, today, and forever” (Heb. 13:8). Now did my chains fall off my legs indeed. I was loosed from my afflictions and irons; my temptations also fled away; so that from that time those dreadful scriptures of God left off to trouble me; now went I also home rejoicing for the grace and love of God.

Favorite Recipes"
Butter a 9-inch square baking dish. Butter the sides of a heavy 2-quart
sauce-pan.
Combine sugars, cream, milk and butter in saucepan. Cook over medium heat,
stirring constantly, until sugars dissolve and mixture comes to a boil.
Cook to soft ball stage (238 degrees on candy thermometer), stirring only
if necessary. Immediately remove from heat and cool to lukewarm (110
degrees). DO NOT STIR.
Add vanilla and beat vigorously until very thick and mixture starts to lose
its gloss. Quickly stir in nuts and spread into prepared baking dish. Score
while warm, and cut when firm.
Michael's notes: This recipe contains directions (about not over-stirring)
that are applicable to most fudge recipes. The buttering the sides of the
saucepan is also a life saver in other fudge recipes.

A Message from our Provider:

“We can do nothing, we say sometimes, we can only pray. That, we feel, is a terribly precarious second-best. So long as we can fuss and work and rush about, so long as we can lend a hand, we have some hope; but if we have to fall back upon God — ah, then things must be critical indeed! #A.J. Gossip”
