God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)
The focal point of your discipline and correction must be your children seeing their utter inability to do the things which God requires unless they know the help and strength of God. Your correction must hold the standard of righteousness as high as God holds it… The alternative is to reduce the standard to what may be fairly expected of your children without the grace of God. The alternative is to give them a law they can keep. The alternative is a lesser standard that does not require grace and does not cast them on Christ, but rather on their own resources. Dependence on their own resources moves them away from the cross. It moves them away from any self-assessment that would force them to conclude that they desperately need Jesus’ forgiveness and power.
True salvation is not to be found through the mere reception of any creed, however true or scriptural. Mere “head notion” is not the road to heaven. “You must be born again,” means a great deal more than that you must believe certain dogmas. The study of the Bible cannot save you! You must press beyond this; you must come to the living, personal Christ, or else your acceptance of the soundest creed cannot avail for the salvation of your soul. Salvation lies in Jesus only!
FRUIT SAUCE
Heat oven to 375 F. Pour butter over crumbs; mix until all are buttered.
Drain syrup from cherries and apricots; reserve for sauce. Place a layer of
crumbs in a 1 1/2 quart baking dish. Add a layer of fruit; sprinkle with
1/3 of the sugar, lemon juice and rind, spices and salt. Repeat until all
ingredients have been used, reserving a few crumbs for top. Bake 30
minutes. Serve warm with Fruit Sauce. Makes 10 to 12 servings.
Fruit Sauce: Blend 1/4 cup of the fruit juice with cornstarch until smooth.
Heat remaining syrup to boiling; stir in cornstarch mixture. Cook until
thickened and clear, stirring constantly. Add salt, nutmeg, and sugar; stir
until well blended. Remove from heat; cool. Whip cream; fold into sauce
with lemon flavoring.
