We Love God!

God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)

The right manner of growth is to grow less in one’s own eyes.
Thomas Watson

God does not like to be taken for granted. It flies in the face of His eternal purposes – that He be known and loved and praised and enjoyed. And it makes us superficial people… When the main thing is missing, what’s left is distorted and superficial, whatever it is. If someone says, “Oh, that’s just religion,” I answer, “It’s not religion. It’s reality. God made the world and everything in it. He owns the earth and everyone on it. He is the main actor in the world. He is guiding the history of every people and nation to their appointed goals. Everything, without exception, has to do with God and gets its main meaning from God. And not to show this, but to take this for granted, is to be superficial.” It is simply impossible to overstate the importance of God. And He does not like being taken for granted. The psalm does not say, “Great is the Lord, and greatly to be taken for granted.” It says, “Great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised” (Psm. 96:4).

CATEGORY CUISINE TAG YIELD

INGREDIENTS

2 qt Vegetable oil; for deep-frying
1 3/4 c Flour; + extra for rolling
1 ts Baking powder
1/2 ts Salt
2 Eggs; lightly beaten
1 Ripe banana; mashed
1/3 c Milk
Banana-Raisin Caramel Sauce; see * Note
Powdered sugar; in a sugar shaker

INSTRUCTIONS

* Note: Add sliced bananas and rum-soaked raisins to your favorite
caramel sauce.
In a deep-fryer heat oil over medium-high heat to 365 degrees. Into a
bowl sift together flour, baking powder and salt. In a large bowl
whisk together eggs, banana and milk. Using a wooden spoon, beat dry
ingredients into egg mixture until a biscuit-like dough forms.
Lightly flour work surface and turn out dough. Pat dough out to a
1/4-inch thick round. Use a 2 1/2- to 3-inch biscuit cutter to cut
out desired shapes. Reroll scraps. Fry beignets in small batches
about 4 minutes until golden, turning several times to color evenly.
Using a slotted spoon gently remove beignets and drain thoroughly on
paper towels. To serve, arrange 3 beignets on each of 4 dessert
plates and drizzle with Banana-Raisin Caramel Sauce. Shake powdered
sugar over all and serve. This recipe yields 4 servings, about 1
dozen beignets.
