Retire from the world each day to some private spot, even if it be only the bedroom (for a while I retreated to the furnace room for want of a better place). Stay in the secret place till the surrounding noises begin to fade out of your heart and a sense of God’s presence envelops you… Listen for the inward Voice till you learn to recognize it. Stop trying to compete with others. Give yourself to God and then be what and who you are without regard to what others think… Learn to pray inwardly every moment. After a while you can do this even while you work… Read less, but more of what is important to your inner life. Never let your mind remain scattered for very long. Call home your roving thoughts. Gaze on Christ with the eyes of your soul. Practice spiritual concentration. All the above is contingent upon a right relation to God through Christ and daily meditation on the Scriptures. Lacking these, nothing will help us; granted these, the discipline recommended will go far to neutralize the evil effects of externalism to make us acquainted with God and our own souls.

2		3 tablespoons flour
1	c	Skim milk or soy milk
1	tb	Nutritional yeast
	x	Salt, pepper
	x	Mustard

INSTRUCTIONS

Cook and stir to a paste. At this point I add skim milk, about a cup. A cup
of soy milk, or a cup of a mixture of nut butter and water coould be
substituted. Add a tablespoon or so of nutritional yeast. Flavor to taste,
I use salt, pepper, and a little good mustard. I am assuming you know how
to work up a fat/flour mixture with added liquid to make a thickened sauce.
My version isn't vegan but has the advantage of being relatively low-fat.

A Message from our Provider:

“Who hears \”Depart from me, for I never knew you\”?”

God’s holiness is manifested at the Cross. Wondrously and yet most solemnly does the Atonement display God’s infinite holiness and abhorrence of sin. How hateful must sin be to God for Him to punish it to its utmost deserts when it was imputed to His Son!…The “god” which the vast majority of professing Christians “love” is looked upon very much like an indulgent old man, who himself has no relish for folly, but leniently winks at the “indiscretions” of youth. But the Word says, “Thou hatest all workers of iniquity” (Ps. 5:5). And again, “God is angry with the wicked every day” (Ps. 7:11). But men refuse to believe in this God, and gnash their teeth when His hatred of sin is faithfully pressed upon their attention. No, sinful man was no more likely to devise a holy God than to create the Lake of fire in which he will be tormented for ever and ever.
