God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)
It is an instructive and solemn fact, brought out in the history of more than one revival, that when a whole neighborhood had been well watered with the showers of grace, no drop of blessing has descended there where a spirit of controversy and strife had obtained a footing. The Spirit of God hovered around but fled from the scene of discord as from a doomed region where his dove-like temper could find no resting-place… Ever remember that “His work is sown in peace of them that make peace,” and no dwelling can be more distasteful, no vessel more unsuitable to Him, than a heart which delights itself with matters that provoke contention and strife… Labor with all diligence to keep your own minds in the peace of God, and in your intercourse and connection with others ever to strive for “the things which make for peace.”

INSTRUCTIONS
DRESSING
SALAD
DRESSING: Mix together and set aside
Salad: Combine all ingredients for the salad. (The garbanzo beans are
optional.) Pour dressing over, and mix well. Place in a container with a
cover, and let chill in refrigerator for 12 hours or longer. To serve,
drain dressing from the salad. Serve on a lettuce leaf with a wedge of
hard-boiled egg for garnish.
This keeps about 2 weeks in the fridge.
Notes: This was my late mother-in-law's recipe. She never added the
garbanzo beans, but I do because Kenny loves the nutty flavor they add to
this salad. You can add more or less pepper and celery, if desired.
One time I drained a can of canneloni (is that right? those white Italian
beans that look like kidney beans?)...and that was really good as well.
Also note that I usually buy the store brand of veggies...I can't tell the
difference between them and their many cents higher name brands with lots
of advertising. Posted to EAT-L Digest by "Sharon H. Frye"
