God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)
The Puritans…were great souls serving a great God. In them clear-headed passion and warm-hearted compassion combined. Visionary and practical, idealistic and realistic too, goal-oriented and methodical, they were great believers, great hopers, great doers, and great sufferers. But their sufferings, both sides of the ocean (in Old England from the authorities and in New England from the elements), seasoned and ripened them till they gained a stature that was nothing short of heroic. Ease and luxury, such as our affluence brings us today, do not make for maturity; hardship and struggle however do, and the Puritans' battles against the spiritual and climatic wildernesses in which God set them produced a virility Of character, undaunted and unsinkable, rising above discouragement and fears, for which the true precedents and models are men like Moses, and Nehemiah, and Peter after Pentecost, and the apostle Paul.

INSTRUCTIONS
FOR 1 QUART FILLING
FOR 7 QUARTS FILLING
Quality: Use firm, crisp apples. Stayman, Golden Delicious, Rome, and other
varieties of similar quality are suitable. If apples lack tartness, use an
additional 1/4 cup of lemon juice for each 6 quarts of slices.
Yield: 1 quart or 7 quarts
Procedure: Wash, peel, and core apples. Prepare slices 1/2-inch wide and
place in water containing ascorbic acid to prevent browning. For more
information see "Ensuring High-Quality Canned Foods".
For fresh fruit, place 6 cups at a time in 1 gallon of boiling water. Boil
each batch 1 minute after the water returns to a boil. Drain, but keep
heated fruit in a covered bowl or pot. Combine sugar, Clear Jel(tm) , and
cinnamon in a large kettle with water and apple juice. If desired, food
coloring and nutmeg may be added. Stir and cook on medium high heat until
mixture thickens and begins to bubble. Add lemon juice and boil 1 minute,
stirring constantly. Fold in drained apple slices immediately and fill jars
with mixture without delay, leaving 1 inch headspace. Adjust lids and
process immediately according to the recommendations in Table 1. See Table
Table 1. Recommended process time for Apple Pie Filling in a boiling-water
canner.
Style of Pack: Hot. Jar Size: Pints or Quarts. Process Time at Altitudes
