[T]here is nothing in us or done by us at any stage of our earthly development because of which we are acceptable to God. We must always be accepted for Christ’s sake or we cannot ever be accepted at all. This is not true of us only “when we believe,” it is just as true after we have believed. It will continue to be true as long as we live… It is always, on His “blood and righteousness” alone that we can rest. There is never anything that we are or have or do that can take His place or that take a place along with Him. We are always unworthy, and all that we have or do of good is always of pure grace.

Follow the directions below for Plain Rice Pilav, adding 1 bay leaf and 1/4
teaspoon saffron threads dissolved in 1/4 cup boiling water to the rice
together with the stock. Cook as directed. The rice gets a beautiful yellow
color and a heady aroma from the saffron and bay leaf. The bay leaf will be
resting on top of the rice at the end of cooking. Remove and discard it
before serving. Serve as a side dish with a meat, fish, or vegetarian
entree.
Plain Rice Pilav:
1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
2. If using white rice, you will need 4 cups stock. If using brown rice you
will use 5 cups stock.
3. If using white rice, place the rice in a colander and rinse it in the
sink in cold water until the water runs clear. Allow the rice to drain and
dry for 20 minutes. If using brown rice, skip this step.
4. Over medium heat, heat the olive oil in a casserole with a tight fitting
lid. Saute the rice in the oil until it starts to brown.
5. Sprinkle the salt over the rice and pour in the stock. Cover tightly and
place in the oven. Bake for 35-40 minutes (white rice) to 1 hour (brown
rice). When the pilaf is done, all of the liquid will have been absorbed. A
lovely aroma will fill the room when you open the lid of the pot. Serve
immediately as a side dish with a meat, fish or vegetarian entree.
