God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)
We ought to rejoice that in God’s great wisdom and love He does in fact answer all of our requests, though to be sure, He says no to some things because our having them would hurt us in the long run. We also ought to rejoice that in His wisdom He gives us what we ask at the best time, rather than at an earlier time when our very limited judgment thinks it would be best. And finally, we ought to rejoice that God’s love and wisdom gives us what often turns out to be far better than the precise thing for which we had asked (Eph. 3:20).
Whenever the true message of the cross is abolished, the anger of hypocrites and heretics eases…and all things are in peace. This is a sure token that the devil is guarding the entry of that house, and that the pure doctrine of God's Word has been taken away. The church, then, is in the BEST state when Satan assaileth it on every side…both with subtle sleights, and outright violence. And (likewise) it is in the WORST state, when it is most at peace!
Saute rice and vermicelli; stirring constantly, in olive oil or butter in
nonstick pan until rice is translucent, about 2 minutes. Combine rice and
vermicelli with broth in steaming pan; season to taste. Cover and steam
until rice is done, 18 to 20 minutes. Uncover and allow to dry out, 3 to 5
minutes. Fluff with fork before serving.
Variations: * Turkish cooks sometimes chop and add the white parts of a few
scallions at the end of the steaming step.
* Substitute 1/2 cup fine egg noodles for vermicelli.
NOTES : This popular dish is used interchangeably with plain rice pilaf.
Especially good with chicken and lamb stews.
