God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)
Our wills must be broken to His will. To be broken is the beginning of revival. It is painful, it is humiliating, it is the only way. It is being ‘Not I, but Christ,’ and a ‘C’ is a bent ‘I.’ The Lord Jesus cannot live in us fully and reveal Himself through us until the proud self within us is broken. This simply means that the hard unyielding self, which justifies itself, wants its own way, stands up for its rights, and seeks its own glory, at last bows its head to God's will, admits it’s wrong, gives up its own way to Jesus, surrenders its rights and discards its own glory – that the Lord Jesus might have all and be all. In other words, it is dying to self and self-attitudes.

INSTRUCTIONS

NOTE Regarding Pet evaporated milk: PET is a brand of evaporated milk. I
use other brands with equal success in this cake. For those of you who do
not have access to the chocolate pudding cake mixes, any moist chocolate
cake baked from scratch will work equally well.
CAKE--Prepare cake mix as directed and bake.
FILLING--Heat 1 cup milk, sugar, and marshmallows until melted; add
coconut. While cake is hot, cover completely with filling. Let set while
preparing frosting.
FROSTING--In saucepan heat 1 1/2 cup sugar, 1/2 cup milk and margarine
until it starts to boil; add chocolate chips. Stir until melted; add nuts,
if desired. Pour over cake.
>From Carole: This is a tried and true cake and very rich. I bake the cake
in a 9X13 sheet cake pan. Make sure the pan is deep enough to hold all
three layers. After frosting the cake, I place almonds over the cake,
insuring that when cut, each serving includes an almond. You can use either
slivered or whole. It really does taste like an almond joy! I found this
recipe in the Oklahoma Christian College Women's Association of OKC 1985
Cookbook. Enjoy!

A Message from our Provider:
“Let Him therefore send and do what He will. By His grace, if we are His, we will face it, bow to it, accept it, and give thanks for it. God’s Providence is always executed in the ‘wisest manner’ possible. We are often unable to see and understand the reasons and causes for specific events in our lives, in the lives of others, or in the history of the world. But our lack of understanding does not prevent us from believing God. #Don Fortner”
