God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)
In Matt. 11:25 we read of a prayer in which Jesus said, “I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that thou didst hide these things from the wise and understanding, and didst reveal them unto babes; yea, Father, for so it was well-pleasing in thy sight.” In those words He thanked the Father for doing that very thing which Arminians exclaim against as unjust and censure as partial.

INSTRUCTIONS
ICING
A must on your Christmas cookie tray. Despite the lemony frosting, the
cinnamon flavor comes through.
On a pastry board, mix flour, sugar and walnuts. Form a mound, make a well
and add the egg yolks, lemon rind and spices. Cut the butter in small
pieces and add to the flour mixture. Knead thoroughly to make a smooth
dough.
Let dough rest for 30 minutes in the refrigerator.
Preheat oven to 350°. Roll dough out with a rolling pin to 1/8- inch thick
and cut into star shapes with a cookie cutter. Bake at 350° until cookies
are lightly browned, about 10 minutes. Let cool and decorate with the
icing.
To make icing, mix sugar, egg white, lemon juice and yellow food coloring
(if using) in a bowl until very smooth. (Icing has to be thick enough so it
will not run off stars.) Spread evenly with a pointed knife on the stars.
Let icing dry overnight. Store in a cookie tin.
Note: If you like a less sweet cookie, omit the icing.
Yield: 6 dozen. Franziska Mayer, Washington, DC
