God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)
Any training – physical, mental, or spiritual – is characterized at first by failure. We fail more often than we succeed. But if we persevere, we gradually see progress till we are succeeding more often than failing. This is true as we seek to put to death particular sins. At first it seems we are making no progress, so we become discouraged and think, What’s the use?! I can never overcome that sin. That is exactly what Satan wants us to think. It is at this point that we must exercise perseverance. We keep wanting instant success, but holiness doesn’t come that way. Our sinful habits are not broken overnight. Follow-through is required to make any change in our lives, and follow-through requires perseverance.
Eleven years ago while giving an anesthetic for a ruptured ectopic pregnancy (at two months gestation) I was handed what I believed was the smallest living human ever seen… Within the sac was a tiny human male swimming extremely vigorously in the amniotic fluid . . . This tiny human was perfectly developed, with long, tapering fingers, feet and toes. It was almost transparent, as regards to the skin, and the delicate arteries and veins were prominent to the ends of the fingers. The baby was extremely alive and swam about the sac approximately one time per second, with a natural swimmer's stroke. It is my opinion that if the lawmakers, and people realized that very vigorous life is present it is possible that abortion would be found more objectionable than euthanasia.
Remove the outer stalks of celery until only the smaller, paler inner
"heart" remains. Save the outer stalks for another use. Trim the bottom off
the heart, leaving enough to hold it together. Leave the leaves intact. Cut
in half lengthwise, and place in a saucepan with the chicken broth. Bring
to a boil, reduce heat to a simmer, and cook covered for about 30 minutes
or until tender. Serves 2.
NOTES : This recipe is quick and easy, and you will probably want to add i=
t to your standard repertoire of vegetable side dishes. It goes great with
our steak this week, but it also works with virtually any chicken or
seafood entree as well. Bon appetit from the Chef and staff at World Wide
