God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)
God from all eternity, did, by the most wise and holy counsel of His own will, freely, and unchangeably ordain whatsoever comes to pass yet so, as thereby neither is God the author of sin, nor is violence offered to the will of the creatures; nor is the liberty or contingency of second causes taken away, but rather established.
If only for a moment, take your eyes off yourself and your circumstances, off the ways of this world and all rival claimants, and look at who God is. Ponder His mighty deeds. This isn’t to say your soul or circumstances aren’t important. It simply means that you are in the hands of an omnipotent God whose ability to act on your behalf is equaled only by His passionate affection for you as His child, whose strength is without end and whose sovereignty covers the expanse of the heavens. God’s desire isn’t to minimize your life and struggles and disappointments. His intent is for you to gain hope, knowing that nothing can wrench you from the loving arms of a God like this!

In response to a recent request for recipes for some Italian biscuits/
cookies made with pignoli....here is a collection of a variety of different
types which are popular in Italy...I hope they please!!
Place nuts in a shallow pan and bake in a 350F oven for 6 to 8 minutes or
until golden brown. Let cool. In a mixing bowl, cream butter and sugar
until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs, lemon juice and zest. In a bowl,
combine the flour, baking powder and salt. Add to the creamed mixture,
mixing until blended. Fold in nuts. Divide dough in half. On a greased and
floured baking sheet pat out into two logs about 1/2 inch high, 1.5 inches
wide and 14 inches long, spacing them at least 2 inches apart. Bake in the
middle of a 325F oven for 25 minutes or until lightly browned. Transfer
from the baking sheet to a rack. Let cool for 5 minutes. Place on a cutting
board. With a serrated knife slice diagonally at a 45 degree angle about
1/2 inch thick. Lay the slices flat on the baking sheet and return to the
oven for 10 minutes longer, turning them over once, to dry slightly. Let
cool on a rack. Store in a tightly covered container. These cookies keep
well. Makes 3.5 to 4 dozen.
