God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)
The intellectual source for the notion that your experience of your father determines your view of the heavenly Father is psychodynamic psychology, not the Bible... In an earlier generation, one of the stock human excuses for unbelief was, “The church is full of hypocrites, so I don’t want anything to do with God.” That was more willful and bitter: “Get lost, God.” The new variant is more self-pitying: “I just can’t seem to trust God.” But the net effect is the same. No cry of “Abba, Father” springs from the heart. “My father didn’t love me, so my self-centeredness, self-pity, and unbelief have an underlying reason. Somebody else caused my problems; somebody else must fix them.”… People change when the Holy Spirit brings the love of God to their hearts through the Gospel. Whoever receives the Spirit of adoption as God’s child learns to cry out, “Abba, Father.” People change when they see that they are responsible for what they believe about God. Life experience is no excuse for believing lies; the world and devil don’t excuse the flesh. People change when biblical truth becomes more loud and vivid than previous life experience. People change when they have ears to hear and eyes to see what God tells us about Himself.

INSTRUCTIONS
TART SHELL
FILLING
Preheat the oven to 425°F.
Combine the flour, thyme and salt. Using a pastry blender or 2 knives, cut
the butter and shortening into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse
meal. Add water, 1 Tbsp at a time, until the dough begins to come together.
Form into disk; chill for 15 minutes.
For the filling, in a skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the
apples, onion, garlic and salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the
apples are golden, about 15 minutes. On a lightly floured surface, roll out
the dough to a 12x16 -inch rectangle. Transfer to a baking sheet. Spoon the
filling onto the shell to within 1 1/2-inches of the edges. Fold the edges
over the filling to form a border.
Bake for 15 to 20 minutes.
