We Love God!

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

Justification goes beyond forgiveness. Not only are we forgiven because of Christ, but God also declares us righteous because of Christ. God requires two things of us: punishment for our sins and perfection in our lives. Our sins must be punished, and our lives must be righteous. But we cannot bear our own punishment (Ps. 49:7-8), and we cannot provide our own righteousness. “None is righteous; no, not one” (Rom. 3:10). Therefore, God, out of His immeasurable love for us, provided His own Son to do both. Christ bears our punishment, and Christ performs our righteousness. And when we receive Christ (John 1:12), all of His punishment and all of His righteousness is counted as ours (Rom. 4:4-6; 5:1, 19; 8:1; 10:4; 2 Cor. 5:21; Phil. 3:8-9).
John Piper

Few things are sapping the strength of the church of Jesus Christ more than the unreconciled state of so many believers. So many have matters deeply imbedded in their craws, like iron wedges forced between themselves and other Christians. They can’t walk together because they do not agree. When they should be marching side by side through this world taking men captive for Jesus Christ, they are acting instead like an army that has been routed and scattered and whose troops in their confusion have begun fighting among themselves. Nothing is sapping the church of Christ of her strength so much as these unresolved problems, these loose ends among believing Christians that have never been tied up. There is no excuse for this sad condition, for the Bible does not allow for loose ends. God wants no loose ends.

In searching for the wafer recipe, I found this one which is a little more
work, but worth it. It is from the side of a Pillsbury Moist Supreme yellow
cake mix.
Heat oven to 350. Grease 9x13 pan. In medium saucepan combine pudding mix
and 1-3/4 cup milk. Bring to boil over medium heat, stirring constantly.
Remove from heat. Cool.
Meanwhile in large bowl, combine cake mix, 1/2 cup margarine, half and half
and almond extract at low speed until moistened. Reserve 1 cup mixture for
topping. Spread remaining mixture in prepared pan. Bake at
350    for 8 minutes.
Spoon and spread pudding gently over base. Add coconut to 1cup reserved
mixture, spoon teaspoonfuls evenly over pudding. Sprinkle with almonds.
Bake an additional 20 to 30 minutes or until golden brown and coconut
mixture is firm to touch.
In small bowl, combine all glaze ingredients adding enough milk for desired
glaze consistency; blend until smooth. Drizzle over warm bars. Cool
completely. Cut into bars. Store in refrigerator.
