The word of the Father by whom all time was created was made flesh and born in time for us. He without whose divine permission no day completes its course, wished to have one of those days for His human birth. In the bosom of His Father He existed before all the cycles of the ages. Born of an earthly mother, He entered on the course of the years on that very day. The maker of man became man that He ruler of the stars might be nourished at the breast, that He the bread might be hungry, that He the fountain might thirst, that He the light might sleep, that He the way might be wearied in the journey, that He the truth might be accused by false witnesses, that He the judge of the living and the dead might be brought to trial by a mortal judge, that He justice itself might be condemned by the unjust, that He discipline personified might be scourged with a whip, that He the foundation might be suspended on a cross, that He courage incarnate might be weak, and He security itself might be wounded, and He life itself might die.

STREUSEL
Preparation time: 15 minutes Baking time: 20 to 25 minutes
1. Heat oven to 375 degrees. Grease 15- by 10-inch jelly-roll pan. Cream
butter, sugar, egg and vanilla in mixing bowl. Stir in cinnamon and salt.
Add flour, a little at a time. Blend well. Press into pan to 1/4 -inch
thickness with wax paper.
2. Brush beaten egg white over dough. Combine streusel ingredients in food
processor. Process until butter is evenly blended. Sprinkle streusel over
dough. Bake 20 minutes. Cool on wire rack 15 minutes. Cut into 2- by 1 1/2
~inch bars while still warm.
Note: The test kitchen found that a mixture of ground spices such as
cinnamon, allspice, ginger, cardamom and cloves also works nicely in place
of the cinnamon, and for the holiday season, a sprinkling of colored sugar
before baking brightens up these cookies.
