I learned early on that to be “set apart” is not a punishment; it is not an attempt on God’s part to deprive us or to condemn us to a cheerless, joyless lifestyle. It is a priceless privilege – it is a call to belong, to be cherished, to enter into an intimate love relationship with God Himself, much as a groom declares his intent to set his bride apart from all other women to be his beloved wife; to fit into the grand, eternal plan of our redeeming God for this universe; to experience the exquisite joys and purposes for which we were created; to be freed from all that destroys our true happiness.

9	lg	Egg yolk; at room temperature

INSTRUCTIONS

Beat the egg yolks, fine sugar and vanilla extract until the mixture turns
a very smooth, pale yellow colour. The mixture will be quite thick in its
consistency. Add the Brandewijn very slowly, keeping your mixer at the
lowest possible speed. Completely incorporate the brandy into the egg
mixture. Place the Advocaat into the top portion of your double boiler.
Keep your heat on low and slowly, warm the Advocaat. Do not allow the
mixture to pass the warm point.

means "lawyer". This traditional Dutch beverage is always served during the
Christmas season.  Serve in a lovely glass and provide the guest with a
small spoon for consumption of the beverage."

A Message from our Provider:

“Uninspired by Jesus? Bet you’ve never met him!”

We must never forget that even in heaven only God is immutable or unchanging. We are ever subject to greater transformation and improvement. But it is always a change from one stage of glory and knowledge and holiness to the next higher stage of glory and knowledge and holiness. It is one thing to be free of imperfection, but another to experience perfection perfectly. We will be perfect in heaven from the first moment we arrive in that we will be free from defect, free from sin, free from moral corruption and selfishness. But that perfection is finite, because we are finite. It is always subject to expansion. There is change, but always for the better!
