God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)
The ultimate goal of theology is not knowledge, but worship. If our learning and knowledge of God do not lead to the joyful praise of God, we have failed. We learn only that we might laud. Another way of putting it is to say that theology without doxology is idolatry. The only theology worth studying is a theology that can be sung.
We are living in an anxiety-ridden culture. And the amazing thing about it is this is the most indulged, the most lavish society ever. This is the most comfortable society ever. This is the society that has the most, but it seems to be the most angst-ridden, anxious, stressed out and panicked culture ever. We have a massive medical world that exists to do nothing but help people with stress. No worry goes unnamed. No worry goes undefined. No worry goes uncataloged. No worry goes undiagnosed. And no worry goes unmedicated. They just go unrelieved. People live with anxiety. They live with worry. They live with stress. But it’s so common that we don’t even talk about eliminating it. The term is “to manage it.” You take a course, go to a seminar, listen to a lecture, buy a tape on stress management… Then Jesus comes along and says, “I’m not going to teach you how to manage your stress, I’ll eliminate it.”
In a food processor, grind the almonds to a powder by pulsing off and on to
keep the powder loose. Mix the almonds with the powdered sugar and flour.
In a separate a bowl, beat the egg whites to soft peaks. Gradually beat in
the granulated sugar until stiff. Fold in the lemon zest and almond
extract. Pipe the mixture with a pastry bag using a round 1/4-inch tip into
1 1/2-inch rounds onto baking sheets lined with lightly buttered waxed
paper or parchment. Bake in a preheated 275-degree oven for 1 hour,
checking to make sure the amaretti don't brown. Turn off the oven and let
the amaretti dry out for an additional hour--they should be very crisp.
Store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator or freezer.
Yield: Approximately 24 cookies
