God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)
[The devil] is always “going about as a lion seeking whom he may devour.” An unseen enemy, he is always near us, about our path and about our bed, and spying out all our ways. A “murderer and a liar” from the beginning, he labors night and day to cast us down to hell. Sometimes by leading into superstition, sometimes by suggesting infidelity, sometimes by one kind of tactics and sometimes by another, he is always carrying on a campaign against our souls… The strong man armed will never be kept out of our hearts without a daily battle.
The story of Christmas celebrates the fulfillment of God’s promises and the incarnation of God in human flesh. That meaning is memorably captured by John 3:16. God loves, and God gives in order to save… It meant giving rather than getting, and Christ gave until He was empty; but His obedience led to an empty tomb and ultimate vindication that will culminate when throngs in heaven and on earth and under the earth, not just a host of angels, will bow down and sing glory in the highest to the One whose name is above every name.
VANILLA PUDDING
CHOCOLATE PUDDING
1. Prepare Vanilla Pudding: In 1-quart microwave-safe bowl, combine sugar
and cornstarch. Stir in milk until well blended and cornstarch is
dissolved. Microwave, uncovered, on high (100 percent) 2 1/2 to 3 minutes,
or until mixture boils and thickens, whisking after every minute. Stir in
egg until well blended. Microwave on medium (50 percent) 30 seconds; stir
in vanilla and set aside.
2. Prepare Chocolate Pudding as in step 1, substituting the chocolate for
vanilla. Stir chocolate into pudding mixture until completely melted and
blended.
3. Set aside Vanilla and Chocolate Puddings until barely warm. Pour one
quarter of each pudding simultaneously into each of 4 small dessert bowls.
With fork, swirl each pudding mixture to marbleize. Refrigerate Black and
White Puddings at least 40 minutes. Garnish with berries, if desired, and
serve.

A Message from our Provider:
“Let Him therefore send and do what He will. By His grace, if we are His, we will face it, bow to it, accept it, and give thanks for it. God’s Providence is always executed in the ‘wisest manner’ possible. We are often unable to see and understand the reasons and causes for specific events in our lives, in the lives of others, or in the history of the world. But our lack of understanding does not prevent us from believing God. #Don Fortner”
