We Love God!

God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)

It is good to understand that Christ’s service never did secure a man from all the ills that flesh is heir to, and never will. If you are a believer, you must reckon on having your share of sickness and pain, of sorrow and tears, of losses and crosses, of deaths and bereavements, of partings and separations, of vexations and disappointments, so long as you are in the body. Christ never undertakes that you shall get to heaven without these. He has undertaken that all who come to Him shall have all things pertaining to life and godliness; but He has never undertaken that He will make them prosperous, or rich, or healthy, and that death and sorrow shall never come to their family.
J.C. Ryle

The proper understanding of everything in life begins with God. No one will ever understand the necessity of conversion who does not know why God created us. He created us 'in His image' so that we would image forth his glory in the world. We were made to be prisms refracting the light of God's glory into all of life. Why God should want to give us a share in shining with His glory is a great mystery. Call it grace or mercy or love – it is an unspeakable wonder. Once we were not. Then we existed – for the glory of God!

INGREDIENTS

4 Dessert apples
2 oz Brown sugar
2 oz Raisins
Cinnamon to taste
1 Beaten egg
1/2 pt Cream, whipped
1 pk Puff pastry (12 oz)

INSTRUCTIONS

(Inspired by James Joyce's "Ulysses")
Preheat the oven to 400'F. Peel and core the apples. Stuff the centers
with a mixture of brown sugar, raisins and cinnamon. Roll out the
pastry and cut out 4 circles approximately 8" in diameter, depending
on the size of the apples. Place an apple in the center of the pastry
circle and brush the edge with beaten egg; draw up the pastry to
enfold the apple, pressing the edges firmly to seal. Brush the tops
of the pastry parcels with the remaining egg to glaze. Bake in a
shallow ovenproof dish for 40 minutes. Serve with whipped cream.
