We start each day with our personal security resting not on the accepting love of God and the sacrifice of Christ but on our present feelings or recent achievements in the Christian life. Since these arguments will not quiet the human conscience, we are inevitably moved either to discouragement and apathy or to a self-righteousness which falsifies the record to achieve a sense of peace. But the faith that is able to warm itself at the fire of God’s love, instead of having to steal love and self-acceptance from other sources, is actually the root of peace.

INGREDIENTS

1	cn	Fatfree refried beans; (or equivalent homemade)
		Your favorite salsa; (we like Safeway Select)
1	sm	Can of corn or equivalent frozen corn
		Chopped cilantro; (optional)

INSTRUCTIONS

I make this almost weekly. It's based on the McDougals' "Your Kids Will
Love This Soup" but is simplified for the time-impared (me).
In saucepan, dump beans, one bean can of water, about 1/2 bean can of
salsa, and corn. Heat to boil, stir, and then simmer for a few minutes to
blend flavors. Serve with chopped cilantro if desired.
