Remember, (your child’s) behavior does not just spring forth uncaused. His behavior – the things he says and does – reflects his heart. If you are to really help him, you must be concerned with the attitudes of heart that drive his behavior. A change in behavior that does not stem from a change in heart is not commendable; it is condemnable. Is it not the hypocrisy that Jesus condemned in the Pharisees? In Matthew 15, Jesus denounces the Pharisees who honored Him with their lips while their hearts were far from Him. Jesus censures them as people who wash the outside of the cup while the inside is still unclean. Yet this is what we often do in child-rearing. We demand changed behavior and never address the heart that drives the behavior.

INSTRUCTIONS

FOR 1 QUART FILLING
FOR 7 QUARTS FILLING
Quality: Use firm, crisp apples. Stayman, Golden Delicious, Rome, and other
varieties of similar quality are suitable. If apples lack tartness, use an
additional 1/4 cup of lemon juice for each 6 quarts of slices.
Yield: 1 quart or 7 quarts
Procedure: Wash, peel, and core apples. Prepare slices 1/2-inch wide and
place in water containing ascorbic acid to prevent browning. For more

each batch 1 minute after the water returns to a boil. Drain, but keep
heated fruit in a covered bowl or pot. Combine sugar, Clear Jel(tm) , and
cinnamon in a large kettle with water and apple juice. If desired, food
coloring and nutmeg may be added. Stir and cook on medium high heat until
mixture thickens and begins to bubble. Add lemon juice and boil 1 minute,
stirring constantly. Fold in drained apple slices immediately and fill jars
with mixture without delay, leaving 1 inch headspace. Adjust lids and
process immediately according to the recommendations in Table 1. See Table
Table 1. Recommended process time for Apple Pie Filling in a boiling-water
canner.
