We are all starved for the glory of God, not self. No one goes to the Grand Canyon to increase self-esteem. Why do we go? Because there is greater healing for the soul in beholding splendor than there is in beholding self. Indeed, what could be more ludicrous in a vast and glorious universe like this than a human being, on the speck called earth, standing in front of a mirror trying to find significance in his own self-image? It is a great sadness that this is the gospel of the modern world. The Christian Gospel is about 'the glory of Christ,' not about me. And when it is—in some measure—about me, it is not about my being made much of by God, but about God mercifully enabling me to enjoy making much of Him forever.
Mix flour and oil together in a heavy ovenproof container. Place on center
shelf in preheated 400° oven. Bake at this temperature for 1-1/2 to 2
hours. Set timer, and stir roux every 15 minutes. Roux should be a caramel
color when done. Remove from oven, cool, transfer to containers with
tight-fitting lids and store in refrigerator until need ed. Roux may also
be frozen. Yield: enough roux for 4 to 6 pots of gumbo.
