We Love God!

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

Criticism should be viewed as a tool for growth and change. Several temptations arise when we experience criticism. 1. We fear the loss of respect; 2. We look for reasons to challenge the data; 3. We search for flaws in the process; 4. We point out weakness in the other person; 5. We demand credit for our strengths; 6. We play the martyr, reeling under the unjust complaints of others. Yet, when we run away from the slightest hint of criticism, we forfeit the very means by which our Lord wants to make us more effective and godly.
Jerry Wragg

Many Christians are spiritually stunted because they are trying to fulfill…the gospel imperatives without soaking themselves in the foundational truths regarding their identity…the gospel indicatives. Counselors must also avoid falling into either side of this ditch. On one side counselors must not focus on good behaviors while excluding the gospel indicatives that empower those behaviors. On the other side counselors must consistently explain how the heavenly realities of who we are in Christ translate into real-life actions.

INGREDIENTS

2 c Sifted all-purpose flour
1 c Firmly packed brown sugar
1/2 c Granulated sugar
1 c Unsalted butter; at room temperature
1 c Coca-Cola®*
1/4 c Cocoa powder
1/2 c Low-fat buttermilk; at room temperature
2 lg Eggs; slightly beaten
1 ts Baking soda
1 ts Vanilla extract
2 c Miniature marshmallows -Icing—
9 oz Semisweet chocolate; coarsely chopped
1/2 c Butter
1/3 c Coca-Cola®
1/3 c Light corn syrup
1/2 c Miniature marshmallows; for garnish

INSTRUCTIONS

*Diet Coca-Cola will not work in this recipe.
To make cake, preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly coat a 9x13-inch baking pan
with vegetable cooking spray and dust with flour. In a large bowl, combine
the flour, brown sugar and granulated sugar. In a heavy, medium saucepan
over low heat combine the butter, Coca-Cola and cocoa and heat until the
butter has melted, stirring often. In crease the heat to medium-high and
bring just to a boil, stirring often. Remove from the heat and pour over
the flour mixture in the bowl, whisking constantly until well blended and
smooth. Whisk in the buttermilk, eggs, baking soda and vanilla until well
blended. Stir in the marshmallows. Pour the batter into the prepared pan.
Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean with just a
few crumbs adhering to it, 30 to 35 minutes. When baked, the cake top will
have a crater-like surface where the marshmallows have melted. Let the cake
cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.
To make the icing, in the top of a double boiler, set over simmering--not
boiling--water over low heat, melt the chocolate and butter, stirring
constantly. Remove from heat and whisk in the Coca-Cola and corn syrup
until well blended. Set aside to cool to room temperature. Then spread the
cooled icing in an even layer over the top of the cake. Sprinkle with the
marshmallows. To serve, cut into squares and serve directly from the baking
pan.
