God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)
The only hope there is of standing righteous and acceptable before God is by receiving by faith what another has done for you. All self-attainment, self-accomplishment, self-righteousness must be abandoned realizing the vanity and hopelessness of bringing to pass our own right standing before God. We must humble ourselves before a holy God, recognize our sin, acknowledge our complete inability to remove that sin. Then we must embrace what Christ has done for us, instead of us, paying the penalty of our sin in our place in order to bring to us, by faith, a credited righteousness by which God may rightly justify us as ungodly sinners. Look to Christ and Christ alone.
Scripture does not command Christians to fast. It is not something that God requires or demands of Christians. At the same time, the Bible presents fasting as something that is good, profitable, and expected. The Book of Acts records believers fasting before they made important decisions (Acts 13:4; 14:23). Fasting and prayer are often linked together (Luke 2:37; 5:33).
* (the skins on look prettier, but skinned will do) Preheat oven to 300
degrees. Cream together butter and sugar. Add egg whites; beat till smooth.
Stir in flour. SPREAD PAPER THIN (I use a dough scraper) and right to the
edges of two well greased cookie pans. Sprinkle the almonds on top. Bake
for 25 minutes, watching very closely. The almonds should be pale brown.
Remove from oven and either cut into squares immediately or let cool and
bread into pieces.
