Many a good and righteous cause on earth has been lost by the death of its advocate. But our Advocate, as He is without beginning of days, is without end of years. As the tinkling bells of the High Priest’s vestments were heard by the crowd in the outer court, while he himself was ministering within the veil – the sound conveying to them the assurance that he was still engaged in the solemn act of intercession – so the ear of faith can still catch up the music of these sacred chimes – these silver bells in heaven – “Blessed are the people who know the joyful sound!”

INSTRUCTIONS

BRINE
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. In a medium saucepan, mix the brine
ingredients, warm over a low heat and whisk thoroughly. Cut the stale
tortillas into strips or wedges. (If the tortillas are fresh, dry them by
spreading them on a baking sheet and letting them sit out, room
temperature, for 1 hour or more.) Briefly dip the tortilla pieces into the
brine, then shake off the excess water. (A longer soaking in the brine will
make the tortillas take on a more pronounced flavor.) Spread the prepared
tortilla chips in a single layer on a baking sheet. Bake, turning
occasionally, until they are crisp and golden brown, about 12 to 15
minutes.
Yield: 4 to 6 servings

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”
