God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)
Because those in the world are so quick to live vicariously through their children, to catalog their successes in conversation and on social media, we Christians are tempted to follow suit. We want to show the world that our following in the pathway of Christ doesn’t make us losers, but that in fact we are empowered for even greater successes. We Christians herald our outspoken athletes and our teenage pop stars and in turn highlight whatever headlines our own children garner. Our standards, however, ought to be different. Our faith isn’t a better path to a better life, as the world defines it. It is instead a different path, a different life, and a different understanding of what we mean by better. We cherish academic success, but smart, I’m sorry to report, is not listed among the fruit of the Spirit. Neither is pretty, wealthy, athletic, musical. There is nothing wrong with those things, nothing wrong with excelling in those things. They are not, however, the goal. They are not the measure of success for those called to pick up their cross and follow Him.
Do all the good you can, by all the means you can, in all the ways you can, in all the places you can, at all the times you can, to all the people you can and as long as you can.
Source: Sunset Magazine, December 1961 You can take this pie out of your
freezer just before serving it. Make pastry shell from your own recipe or
use a mix; bake as directed except remove it from the oven after only 5
minutes baking, and reduce oven temperature to moderately hot (375).
Meanwhile combine the egg with the coconut, nuts, syrup, flour, salt, and
the 1/4 cup sugar; spread in the bottom of partly baked pastry shell.
Return pie to oven and bake for 15 minutes; cool thoroughly. Crush the
frozen blueberries and combine with the 2/3 cup sugar; fold into the
whipped cream. Pour the berry mix- ture over cooled coconut mixture and
freeze. Serves 6. When they are in season, use 2 cups fresh blueberries to
replace the frozen ones in this recipe; chill berry mixture before folding
into cream.
NOTES : I have not tried this but it lookes good
