We Love God!

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

Many Christians estimate difficulties in the light of their own resources, and thus attempt little and often fail in the little they attempt. All God’s giants have been weak men who did great things for God because they reckoned on His power and presence with them.
Hudson Taylor

We are not kept from believing against our wills. “The one who comes to Me,” declares Jesus, “I will certainly not cast out” (John 6:37b). The problem, however, as Jesus goes on to say, is that “no one can come to Me, unless the Father who sent Me draws him” (John 6:44a; italics added).

INGREDIENTS

3/4 c Vegetable shortening
Butter flavored
1 1/4 c Light brown sugar, packed
2 tb Milk
1 tb Vanilla extract
1 Egg
2 c All-purpose flour
1 ts Salt
3/4 ts Baking soda
1 c Semisweet chocolate chips
1 c Pecans — coarsely chopped
Icing:
1 1/4 c Powdered sugar
3 tb Vegetable shortening
2 ts Milk
1 ts Light corn syrup

INSTRUCTIONS

Preheat oven to 375 degrees; line 4 cookie sheets with foil and lightly
grease the foil.  In a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed,
beat the brown sugar, shortening, milk and vanilla extract until well
blended. Beat in the egg. In a medium bowl, combine the flour, salt and
baking soda.  With a spoon, stir into the shortening mixture just until
blended.  Stir in the chocolate chips and pecans. Divide the dough into
quarters; divide each quarter into 12 pieces. Roll each piece into a 1-inch
ball. Arrange the balls on the cookie sheets almost touching to form an
8-inch circle.  Flatten the balls slightly with your fingers. Repeat with
the remaining balls to make 3 more wreaths. Bake one cookie sheet at a time
for 12 to 14 minutes, or until the wreaths are lightly browned. Do not
overbake.  Cool completely before removing from the cookie sheet.
Meanwhile, prepare the icing.  In a small bowl with the mixer on medium
speed, beat the powdered sugar, shortening, milk and corn syrup until
smooth.  If too thick, thin with a little milk; if too thin, add more
powdered sugar.  The icing may be covered and refrigerated for up to 1
week. Makes 1 1/2 cups. Spread or pipe the icing over the cooled wreaths.
Cut the red and green candies as needed for flowers and leaves. Place in
clusters around the wreath. Makes 4 wreaths.
