God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)
Self must be denied as to time and attention for prayer. All-prayer cannot be wielded without the expenditure of time. “A minute with God” seldom lays hold of Him. Sustained prayer is necessary. Such time may only be found by snatching it from personal pursuits, however legitimate they may be.
Speaking is an art and a craft, not a science. The most effective speaker’s love language and enjoy telling a tale. They experiment with different ways of using words and sentences, different strategies for constructing messages and talks. Leaders who are good speakers learn to use their voice as an instrument rather than a piece of equipment. They learn how to use humor without becoming comedians; to arouse emotion without selling out to emotionalism; and to make an audience want more, not less, from the speaker.
How about another muffin recipe? Also from Muffins A to Z by Marie Simmons:
These light, tender muffins remind me of my childhood breakfast of oatmeal
sprkinled with cinnamon and sweetened with a stream of maple syrup. I added
chopped apple and named them for Altamont Orchards where evey October, I
conduct cooking demonstrations and cookbook signings at an apple festival
near Albany, New York. [author's note]
1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Light butter 12 muffin cups or coat
with nonstick cooking spray.
2. Combine the flour, oatmeal, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda and
salt in a large bowl; stir until well blended. Add the apple; toss to coat.
3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, oil, maple syrup,
brown sugar and egg. Add to the dry ingredients and fold just until evenly
moistened. Do not overmix.
4. Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups. Bake until the tops are
golden and a toothpick inserted in the centers comes out clean, 20 to 22
minutes.
5. Cool on a wire rack before removing from the pan.

A Message from our Provider:
“Many favors which God gives us ravel out for want of hemming through our unthankfulness; for though prayer purchases blessings, giving praise keeps the quiet possession of them. #Thomas Fuller”
