We Love God!

God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)

Selfless love does not serve in order to prevent its own harm or to insure its own welfare. It serves for the sake of the one being served, and serves in the way it likes being served – whether it ever receives such service or not. That level of love is the divine level, and can be achieved only by divine help... Unregenerate man can never come up to the standard of selfless love – the love that loves others as oneself and that treats others in the same way that one wants to be treated.
John MacArthur

What moves God is not our supposed goodness or trophies of righteousness, but rather our desperation and cry to Him for grace. If we could earn it, grace would no longer be grace. Grace by its very definition is giving us what we do not deserve. If we were entitled to God’s favor, it would be a wage that we are due. But since we have merited nothing from God and God being God owes us nothing, we see His favor both in salvation and the blessings that follow all as a token of His undeserved grace to the praise of His glory.

CATEGORY CUISINE TAG YIELD
Vegetables, Dairy Asparagus, Pasta, Side dishes, Vegetables 4 Servings

INGREDIENTS

1 lb Asparagus
2 Spring bulb onions, about
1/2 pound
1 t Olive oil
3 T Unsalted butter
Salt and pepper
1 lb Buckwheat linguine
3 Cloves garlic
1 c Vegetable stock
1 T Chopped chervil, plus
20 Sprigs chervil, for garnish
1/2 Lemon
1/2 lb Ricotta salata cheese

INSTRUCTIONS

Snap off the ends of the asparagus and peel if the stalks are thick.
Slice diagonally 1/4 inch thick, leaving the tips whole. Trim and  peel
the spring onions and slice them very thin. Peel and finely chop  the
garlic. Bring a pot of salted water to a boil for the pasta.  In a pan
big enough for the vegetables to be sauteed, not steamed,  heat the
olive oil and 1 tablespoon of the butter. Add the asparagus  and the
spring onions, season with salt and pepper, and saute over  high heat
for a few minutes, until the vegetables are slightly  browned and
caramelized. Cook the linguine.  When the vegetables are nearly done,
add the garlic and cook 1 minute  more. When the vegetables are ready,
pour in the vegetable stock to  deglaze the pan; add the rest of the
butter off the heat, swirling  the pan to thicken the sauce. Add the
chopped chervil and a squeeze  of lemon. Taste for salt, pepper, and
lemon juice, and adjust if  necessary. Drain the linguine, add to the
vegetables, and toss. Serve  immediately on warm plates, garnished with
crumbled ricotta salata  and the chervil sprigs. Serves 4 to 6.  >From:

A Message from our Provider:

“If thankfulness does not move us to serve God, then we do not truly understand who our God is and what He has done in our behalf. Without gratitude for Christ’s sacrificial love, our duty will become nothing more than drudgery and our God nothing more than a dissatisfied boss. #Bryan Chapell”
