God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)
Though some people may seem to be naturally gifted at encouraging and uplifting other people, the Bible makes it clear that we’re all to be encouragers. According to Scripture, encouragement is to be a regular part of our interaction with other people. This necessarily means that we must spend time with other people for the purpose of knowing their needs, their struggles, and how best they may be encouraged.
If our blessed Lord used to pray early before day; if He spent whole nights in prayer; if the devout Anna was day and night in the temple; if Paul and Silas at midnight sang praises unto God; if the primitive Christians, for several hundred years, besides their hours of prayers in the daytime, met publicly in the churches at midnight to join in psalms and prayers; is it not certain that these practices showed the state of their heart? Are they not so many plain proofs of the whole turn of their minds?

Roll pastry slightly less than 1/8" thick. Cut into 7" squares. Bring
syrup ingredients to boil. Boil 3 minutes. Put apple on center of each
pastry square. Fill with mixture of sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg. Dot each with
teaspoon of butter. Bring points of pastry up over apple and overlap.
Place a little apart in baking pan. Pour 1 cup hot syrup mixture around
dumplings. Bake at 425 degrees for 45 minutes. Just before serving pour
rest of warm syrup over dumplings and serve with cream.
Variation: Peach Dumplings: 3 large peaches, peeled and pitted (in place of
apples). Put peach half on center of each square and proceed as for apple
dumplings above.
