God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)
The right way to receive correction based upon Scripture is to be humble. The humble person welcomes every chance the Holy Spirit might be using to burn off the rough edges and forever make him more like his blessed Savior. The humble person doesn’t respond harshly, regardless of the criticism or the messenger, but is concerned with the content and takes everything with a grain of salt, considering it, praying about it and diligently seeks to determine where the correction, to whatever degree, is appropriate. God is given time to work in his heart. Energy and contemplation is placed on, “What is the Lord saying to me” and “how can I learn from these comments” as compared to, “How am I going to defend myself against this attack.” It is about not flying off the handle when corrected, but exercising self-control. Don’t we know that “God is opposed to the proud, but gives grace to the humble” (Jas. 4:6; 1 Pet. 5:5). You see, when we run away from even the slightest hint of criticism, we forfeit the very means by which the Lord wants to use to make us more godly.

INSTRUCTIONS
I love this bread pudding recipe because it makes me feel connected to my
grandmother and to my father. My father learned the bread pudding recipe
from his mother, then gave it to me and my brothers and sister. It is a
recipe that will be passed to my children and, hopefully, to their
children, Consequently, the bread pudding recipe will be perpetual.
Preheat oven to 350oF. Warm the milk and apple juice in saucepan. Beat egg
and egg whites in bowl; add 1/3 cup sugar, vanilla, nutmeg, and cinnamon;
add bread, warm milk, and juice. Let mixture sit 20 minutes. Grease the
bread pan with 1/2 of the margarine. Layer the bottom of the pan with 1/3
of the mixture; sprinkle with 1/2 of the raisins, repeat procedure for next
layer, then end with bread mixture on top layer. In frying pan melt
remaining margarine; add fresh bread crumbs until golden; add brown sugar,
then sprinkle the mixture over layered bread pudding. Place bread pan into
larger pan, which contains enough hot water to come half way up the side of
the bread pan. Bake until knife inserted into pudding comes out clean
(approximately 45 to 60 minutes). Remove from oven with mitts, cool, then
refrigerate. Serves 12.
