God graciously puts [common] love in the hearts of all mothers. Society is better because of it. But add Christ to that, and you have something far richer. Only a Christian mom can love that child “for Christ's sake,” and “as unto the Lord.” Only a Christian mom can show her child what it means to be a true believer in Christ. Only a Christian mom can pray effectively for her child. Only a Christian mom can teach her children the truth about Jesus. Only a Christian mom can teach her kids what marriage is all about, even when times are difficult. And only a Christian mom can die as a lover of Christ, contentedly anticipating eternity in the house of her heavenly father.

~------------------------------------------------------ ~-----------------
Preheat oven to 325oF.  Place ham, fat side down, in a shallow baking pan.
Pour coke into pan until it is 1/2-inch deep. Bake 2 to 3 hours, or until
ham can be easily pierced with a fork, basting with the Coca-Cola every 15
to 20 minutes.  (Center of ham will read 140oF on a meat thermometer when
properly cooked.)  Remove ham from the pan and cool. Cut away rind and fat
with a sharp knife.  Combine sugar, mustards, bread crumbs, and enough Coke
to form a thick paste. Place ham on roasting rack in pan and pat all over
with the paste.  Add remaining coke to the bottom of the pan. Increase the
temperature to 375oF and bake the ham 45 minutes longer, basting every 20
to 15 minutes until sugar-mustard paste has melted to a dark glaze. Let
stand at room temperature 30 minutes before slicing.
