Knowing God’s will is a matter of judgment. That is why it is not an unspiritual practice, when faced with alternative ways of proceeding, to set down the pros and cons of the situation; the reasons, possibilities, problems of one decision in contrast with another. When we begin to evaluate these against a background of a general knowledge of the Lord’s will in Scripture, we often find our minds drawn in a particular direction. As time passes we begin to feel the weight of one course of action rather than another.

Recipe from Bert Greene, The Grains Cookbook
1. Slowly bring the milk to a boil in a medium-size heavy saucepan,
the then gradually add the cornmeal. Whisk them together over
medium-low heat until the polenta is smooth and thick, 5 minutes.
2. Using a bowl scraper, pour the mixture into a lightly buttered pie
plate. Cool on a wire rack, and then refrigerate for 1 hour.
3. At this point, polenta may be sliced into wedges and either dusted
with Parmesan cheese and baked, or lightly sauteed in butter. Serves
6 to 8.
BERT'S NOTES: "Cornmeal recipes abound in a clutch of surprising
cuisines. Italians, for example -- who would never consider chomping
corn on the cob -- dote on a dish called polenta, which is basically
nothing more than cornmeal mush carried to gastronomic heights.
"In northern Italy there is a great mystique about the shape of the
pot in which polenta is stirred; a U-shaped copper pan is adjudged
the ideal utensil. However, not being Italian, I merely use any
heavy-bottomed saucepan. And for a creamier texture, I prefer milk to
water." p122.
