It is an instructive and solemn fact, brought out in the history of more than one revival, that when a whole neighborhood had been well watered with the showers of grace, no drop of blessing has descended there where a spirit of controversy and strife had obtained a footing. The Spirit of God hovered around but fled from the scene of discord as from a doomed region where his dove-like temper could find no resting-place… Ever remember that “His work is sown in peace of them that make peace,” and no dwelling can be more distasteful, no vessel more unsuitable to Him, than a heart which delights itself with matters that provoke contention and strife… Labor with all diligence to keep your own minds in the peace of God, and in your intercourse and connection with others ever to strive for “the things which make for peace.”

Rich, this is an old favorite of mine, from my great-grandmother. Thought
everyone would enjoy it.  I love them, and so does the rest of my family.
They were always part of Christmas baking for us.
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.  Combine shortening, oats, flour, sugar,
raisins, milk, cinnamon, soda and salt. It should stick together when you
squeeze a small amount in your hand. Drop small amounts on sheet. Bake 10
minutes.
Hope you try them, they are the best I've ever tasted, though I'm probably
biased.
