Name: Apple Macadamia Bake
Ingredients: 1/4 c All-purpose flour; 1/4 c Sugar; 1/4 c Firmly packed brown sugar; 3 tb Coarsely chopped macadamias; walnuts, or pecans; 1/8 ts Ground cinnamon; 2 1/2 tb Butter or margarine; cut into small pieces; 7 c Peeled & thinly sliced cooking apple; 2 tb Apricot preserves

The counter-intuitive truth that the depressed person needs to hear isn’t “you’re really a wonderful person,” but rather, “you’re more sinful and flawed than you ever dared believe.” When he bemoans that he’s “such a failure,” we should agree with him, at least on one level. We should all agree that we’re all failures to the point that the perfect Son of God had to die before we would be able to have fellowship with Him… In a nutshell, we have to intentionally consider Jesus, especially during those dark hours we’re tempted to think only of ourselves. And although every one of us needs a daily dose of Gospel-recapitulation, those of us who feels the blows of Giant Despair need it even more.
