God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)
What may we observe about deacons in Acts 6:1-7?
1. Their work was practical in nature.
2. Their name also denotes the practical nature of their work. They are servants. But practical work is spiritual work when done for Christ and the kingdom.
3. Their objective was to relieve the elders (originally the apostles) for the ministry of the Word, prayer, and oversight of the church.
4. They were to be accountable to the Elders (“whom we may put in charge”).
5. Their work was assigned and was not related to decision-making for the church as a whole.
6. Some deacons were also gifted in other areas of ministry and were at liberty to use their gifts. Stephen and Phillip, for instance, were deacons who also had other gifting. As deacons, however, they functioned in a practical way. Deacons are not limited to practical service, but must be engaged in practical service to be deacons.

Water
INSTRUCTIONS
Combine the above ingredients to make a dough. wrap in a towel and let sit
for 30 minutes. [start the sauce heating...]
After the 30 minutes, [start the water boiling] divide the dough in half
and roll out each half, allowing the first sheet of pasta to sit while
rolling out the second.
When the sheets are dryish, cut according to how you like your pasta.
The pasta maker recommends rolling, and folding in half before rerolling.
after rolling you are supposed to sprinkle some flour betwixt the two
halves. If you create a dry enough dough, then you do not need to do this.
in fact, the first time through the rollers, my dough is pretty crumbly at
the edges, but a few more passes makes the dough much more workable.
Cook for about 2 minutes.
