We Love God!

God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)

The benefits [the Lord’s Supper] confers, are spiritual, not physical. Its effects must be looked for in our inward man. It was intended to remind us, by the visible, tangible emblems of bread and wine, that the offering of Christ’s body and blood for us on the cross, is the only atonement for sin, and the life of a believer’s soul. It was meant to help our poor weak faith to closer fellowship with our crucified Savior, and to assist us in spiritually feeding on Christ’s body and blood. It is an ordinance for redeemed sinners, and not for unfallen angels. By receiving it we publicly declare our sense of guilt, and need of a Savior – our trust in Jesus, and our love to Him – our desire to live upon Him, and our hope to live with Him. Using it in this spirit, we shall find our repentance deepened, our faith increased, our hope brightened, and our love enlarged – our besetting sins weakened, and our graces strengthened. It will draw us nearer to Christ.
J.C. Ryle

When we dig up the gold of the past, it must be beaten into useful coins for today. Past, present, and future belong together. The most joyful knowledge is that we are citizens of heaven. Our outlook goes beyond this world, and we are in training for eternity... [In getting older] one discovers something of the plan behind the happenings of the past. When we look back we realize that behind many events, which were not important in themselves, there is a design, an order, a continuity.

6 oz Dried unsulfured cherries; (1 cup)
2 tb Maple syrup
1 3/4 c Unfiltered apple juice
1 tb Kudzu
2 ts Grated lemon peel

INSTRUCTIONS

MAKES 2 CUPS DAIRY-FREE
The idea for this cherry filling was inspired by a friend who sent me
a package of naturally dried Bing cherries from California. If you
can't find Sing, buy any cherries that are unsulfured and
unsweetened, or substitute with another dried fruit.
In small bowl, combine cherries and warm water to cover. Let soak 30
minutes.
Drain cherries and transfer to blender along with maple syrup and 1
1/2 cups apple juice. Blend until smooth. Pour mixture into small
saucepan. Heat over medium-low heat, stirring often, for 5 minutes.
In cup, dissolve kudzu in remaining 1/4 cup apple juice. Whisk into
cherry mixture along with lemon peel. Cook, whisking often, until
slightly thickened, about 5 minutes (mixture will thicken further as
it cools). Cool completely before using.
