The love of God can be a profound answer to just about any human struggle, but sometimes we can use it in such a way that it becomes a watered down version of profoundly rich truth. For example, sometimes, because of shortcomings in us rather than Scripture, this answer misses the call to “consider others better than yourselves” (Phil. 2:3), or it ignores personal repentance. Sometimes it still allows us and our needs to be at the center of the world, and God becomes our psychic errand boy given the task of inflating our self-esteem.

INGREDIENTS

1		Recipe rich roll dough
1/4	c	Tart stiff jam
1/2	c	Granulated sugar
		Oil for frying

INSTRUCTIONS

Make dough according to directions but increase yeast to 2 packages. After
dough has risen to doubled in bulk, turn out onto a lightly floured board
and divide into two equal portions. Quickly round up portions and cover
with bowls. Allow to rest on board 10 minutes. Lightly flour the board and
roll the dough out to a thickness of 1/4 inch. Allow to stand undisturbed 5
minutes. Cut with a 2 1/2 inch cookie cutter that has been lightly dipped
in flour. Again allow to stand for 5 minutes. Place about 1/2 teaspoon jam
in the center of half of the rounds and place a second half over the top of
each, sandwich fashion. Seal the entire edge firmly by pressing together
with a fork or between your fingers. Cover and let stand in a warm place
until doubled in bulk, about 45 minutes. Deep fry in oil heated to 350* F.
until brown and crisp on both sides, about 5 minutes; turn once during
cooking. Drain on paper towels and transfer to a paper sack containing
sugar while still warm, shaking!
! to coat well. Makes about 20 bismarks.
